Mission and Vision
Mission
To prepare motivated Chicago Public Schools high school students to participate in unique summer learning opportunities by providing pre-college counseling and need-based financial support. Summer Quest challenges students to envision, explore, and experience college culture, requirements, and learning options with the goal of increasing enrollment in college and other post-secondary learning programs.
Vision
We inspire high school students to visualize what is possible through higher education. By connecting low-income high school students with high quality pre-college programs, we send students beyond their local neighborhoods on a quest for new intellectual, social, and leadership experiences. We provide the financial resources and support for students to access learning opportunities that would otherwise be unaffordable.
