Graduate Support Program

At Nativity Jesuit Academy, our work does not stop when our students graduate in 8th grade. Through our Graduate Support Program we walk alongside of students and their families through high school and into college.

High School Enrollment

The Graduate Support Program (GSP) works with Nativity Jesuit students beginning in their 8th-grade year to help them reach their top-choice college preparatory high schools. The team is there to support and guide students and families through every step of the process: assisting with admissions, financial aid paperwork, the Milwaukee Parental Choice Program application, and their final enrollment choices.

Support Getting to College

Led by a full-time director and coordinator, the Graduate Support Program team partners with high-performing high schools and the families of Nativity Jesuit graduates to provide individualized academic support. The team works closely with parents, many of whom face language barriers or did not graduate high school themselves, to advocate for our alumni and ensure they continue to excel after leaving Nativity Jesuit Academy.

Mentoring Program

Nativity Jesuit graduates are matched with an adult mentor at the start of their freshman year of high school. Through Nativity-facilitated conversations and informal communication, these mentors guide our alumni through the successes and challenges of their high school journey.
