“I think the goal of Urban Scholars is to teach the leaders of the future. A lot of times at my age, people start dropping out of school. But I know there’s a reason to do my homework and get good grades. I’m going to go to college like everybody here.”
Waldys Guerrero
Eighth Grader
Future College
Student, Class of ’17
Although college is several years away, Waldys is working hard to get there today. Since starting Urban Scholars in the sixth grade, he has improved his academic performance and matured into an intelligent leader who has earned the respect of his peers and teachers. Whether he goes into architecture, engineering, or some other field, Waldys hopes to “do something good for the community.”
