Scripps Summer program for Girls SCRIPPS COLLEGE SUMMER PROGRAM 2014 WINNERS 4 FRESHMAN AND 1 SOPHOMORE Scripps College Academy (SCA) Scholars is an intensive, multiyear, pre-college program for high- achieving young women with limited resources who seek to become the first generation in their families to attend college. Through a rigorous summer residential experience followed by monthly programming throughout high school, SCA Scholars develop the confidence and skills to be wellprepared college applicants, successful college students, and professionals who create positive, lasting change. Summer Residential Program Let s celebrate our Scripps Summer Program Winners Lauron Lewis, Tyjae Johnson, Kyla Harmon, Taylor Lovett, and Dalen Bailey SCA Scholars begin by attending the two-week Summer Residential Program which provides the opportunity to experience what it is like to live among their peers and study at a private, liberal arts institution. For many SCA Scholars, this is their first time on a college campus and their first experience living away from home. Students further their academic preparation by exploring issues of race, class, and gender through an interdisciplinary academic curriculum. Participants develop their writing, critical analysis, discussion, and presentation skills under the guidance of Scripps College professors, staff, and undergraduate mentors. In addition to the academic program, scholars attend fun and informative workshops, field trips, and participate in recreational athletic or art activities.
