Alene (SEED LA ’26) chose SEED for the STEM curriculum and the ability to compete in today’s job market. “I came across SEED LA through a social media advertisement. I immediately told my mom about SEED and how it was a new high school in our community with a college prep boarding environment and a STEM focus. The STEM curriculum is important to me because I think it will give me access to more career options in the future.” Help us continue to support students like Alene and Choose SEED this https://givebutter.com/Chooseseed

Myiah Smith (SEED DC ’16, Georgetown University ’20, Johns Hopkins University ’22) chose SEED because of the breadth of programming offered in and out of the classroom. “In 2009, I joined the SEED DC community as a 6th-grader. It reminded me of sleepaway camp; It was more than just a boarding school! From academics to field trips, STEAM, and sports, SEED did a great job curating academic and extracurricular activities—recognizing that each student has different interests.” Help us continue to support students like Myiah and Choose SEED this https://givebutter.com/Chooseseed

Brandon Julot (SEED MD ’16, Goucher College ’20) chose SEED because he wanted to immerse himself in a different atmosphere. “I was excited about being in a new environment.

SEED offered the college prep aspect, and I knew I wanted to go to college.” Help us continue to support students like Brandon and Choose SEED this https://givebutter.com/Chooseseed
