Research shows that students who participate in summer programming are more successful during the school year, and are more prepared for college and the workplace.

Warhawk Summer Up! was created with one purpose: to connect students and alumni from North Chicago with engaging summer experiences that will prepare them for life inside and outside the classroom.

Not only does Summer Up! identify opportunities that are enjoyable and meaningful, it removes the cost and transportation barriers that often prevent students from taking part. We believe that every qualified student deserves a chance to have new experiences and get ahead.

Best of all, our programs make a student’s summer really count– while still leaving plenty of room for enjoying downtime. Whether it’s a three-day outdoor program, week-long college visit, or six-week paid internship, you’ll still have plenty of time to enjoy summer vacation.
