Welcome

Project D.E.E.P. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit educational program, which operates through collaborations with Boston Centers for Youth & Families and Mayor Michelle Wu, and charitable institutions like The Martin Richard Foundation. The mission of the program is to foster and facilitate the educational, athletic and social growth and development of elementary and middle school children throughout the Dorchester community. We strive to serve as a bridge and connector to the wealth of opportunities readily available to the Dorchester youth and to put our children in a position and offer them the guidance to create a brighter future for themselves and their families.

* Designed to reflect and adjust to the recent modifications in Exam Schools’ admission policies, Project D.E.E.P.’s Excel Program is an 8-week curriculum consisting of an equal parts focus in grade-level Math and Reading Comprehension / Analytical Writing coursework to ensure our students get off to a strong start to their academic year, grow both their confidence in and grasp of key concepts in these foundational subjects, and optimize their performance on standardized testing.

* The Excel Program was developed after consulting with local teachers and parents to best assess the current academic needs of our students with the ultimate goal of best positioning our students for admittance to Exam Schools as well as the top Private and Parochial Schools the region has to offer. With the Exam Schools’ new admission’s weighting process heavily favoring a student’s GPA as it now accounts for 70% of a student’s candidacy, prospective students’ academic performance to start the year has never held more weight in the application process. We can’t stress enough the importance of hitting the ground running this upcoming academic year !!

Project D.E.E.P. will once again have a team taking on this year’s Rodman Ride !!
