Steps to Success Brookline

The mission of Steps to Success is to promote equity for students from low-income families in Brookline by expanding their horizons, building upon their skills, and supporting their educational journey in order to maximize their life choices. Steps to Success, Inc. was launched in 2001. Initially, the key objectives of the program were to facilitate the academic and personal success of children from low-income families, and to ensure educational equity. Home visits and support for parent participation in the Steps to Success mission were early components of the program. STS is the only Brookline program addressing the educational needs of children living in low-income households. Starting in grade 4, STS helps low-income students not only graduate but thrive academically in high school, matriculate into college, and obtain their college degree. We have a proven track record in narrowing the opportunity gap between low-income students and their higher-income counterparts in Brookline.
