Greene Scholars Program (GSP) is a 3rd through 12th grade science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) initiative that instills academic excellence and 21st century leadership skills in youth of African ancestry. The Greene Scholars Program prepares students to compete in the global economy, enter a knowledge-based technical workforce, and provide role models for future generations to come. After 17 years as the signature program of the California Alliance of African American Educators (CAAAE), GSP is now an independent 501(c)3 called Greene Scholars. GSP HAS ERASED THE OPPORTUNITY GAP Since 2001, the Dr. Frank S. Greene Scholars Program has increased the academic success, graduation rate, and career path of its students. One hundred percent of the Scholars who have successfully completed the Greene Scholars Program have gone on to college. ALL of our Scholars have passed the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE), met the University of California’s A-G requirements for college admission, and graduated from high school. Our 107 alumni have pursued B.S./B.A. degrees at colleges and universities throughout the United States; 90% of them have graduated from college in four years and 60% have pursued STEM- related degrees. With 49% female scholars, we are also working to erase the gender gap in STEM. >>>>>>>>> Our alumni have chosen to pursue their undergraduate and graduate degrees at the following colleges and universities: Arizona State Chapman University Cal Poly San Luis Obispo Claremont Mckenna College Azusa Pacific University California State University - Dominiguez Hills California State University - East Bay California State University - Los Angeles California State University - Monterey Bay California State University - Channel Islands Chaffey College >>>>>>>>> DR.
