Dedham Savings Community Foundation Supports Mass Insight Education & Research

The Dedham Savings Community Foundation has donated $7,500 to Mass Insight Education & Research.  This grant will be used to fund special programming aimed at supporting low-income high school students who are working to achieve Advanced Placement (AP) status.  Funding is critical to providing resources and support to this population, especially during the unique challenges presented during COVID-19, when gaps in educational equity are at risk of widening.

Mass Insight Education & Research is a Boston-based, non-profit organization that provides leadership to close achievement and opportunity gaps for underserved students, driving college and career success by focusing on system transformation and student academic success. They work intensively with over 80 high schools in Massachusetts to identify and eliminate historic barriers to AP status, including prerequisites, teacher recommendation requirements and student counseling.
