+ About BEE
BEE the non-profit
Bridging Education + Excellence is a Non-Stock Corporation. There are two constituents of BEE. We first established our 501(c)3 where the mission of Bridging Education + Excellence is to motivate and challenge all students to excel in and beyond the academic environment; placing emphasis on academic excellence, social competencies, and the value of self. B.E.E. provides tutorial services for all academic areas, workshops geared towards college preparedness and career readiness, and social learning experiences that place an emphasis on culture and character. The goal is to bridge gaps in college completion and job obtainment by exploring social strengths, college preparation and career readiness from an academic, community, and ethical stance early.
