Even though 87% of our students are economically disadvantaged,  YES Prep  provides evidence that different outcomes are possible. Eighty-three (83%) of YES Prep alumni matriculate to college within one year and alumni like  Eddie Zapata  are earning their college degrees at five times the rate of their peers with similar socioeconomic backgrounds. How do we do this? YES Prep has  19 campuses  serving 6th-12th graders, like  Monique Bowie . While students typically enter YES Prep one or more grade levels behind, they quickly find themselves on a different life trajectory.
