Luther Burbank Middle to Archbishop Mitty High School

The impossible is possible when catalysts and “impossible” situations collide.  One of our board members (aka—RP Mover) teaches at Luther Burbank Middle School in San Jose.  After seeing many of his brightest students transition to the local gang impacted high schools, he had an idea.  A few weeks later, four of his students summoned their courage to be the first LBMS students to take the entrance exam for Archbishop Mitty High School, a highly renowned private school in San Jose.  Though some people had their doubts, two of the students passed their first hurdle to reach their unique God-given potential—the entrance exam.

But how can two students with little financial resources afford the tuition, school uniforms and books at a top private school?  This RP Mover met with representatives of Archbishop Mitty to advocate for his students and the result?  The two courageous students were informed that they received full academic scholarships to attend one of top college preparatory schools in Silicon Valley and they are now reaching their God-given potential.
