We’re excited to share an update on our Summer College & Career Boot Camp!

We’ve already had over 30 students complete applications, and we’re building a strong cohort from across Clarksville-Montgomery County.

Special shoutout to Northeast High School students, who currently make up 74% of our applicants—we love the energy and initiative! We’re also seeing students from West Creek, Clarksville High, Kirkwood, CMCSS Virtual School, and homeschool communities.

Thank you to everyone who has already shared this opportunity—we appreciate you! 🙏🏾

If you’re connected to a high school student, please encourage them to complete their application. A simple nudge can make a real difference.

Space is limited.

If your organization is interested in supporting this work, we’re still welcoming sponsors to help ensure students can participate at no cost.

We’re excited to announce our first official sponsor for the Summer 2026 College & Career Boot Camp—Altra Federal Credit Union!

At PostGrad Ready, we believe preparing students for life after high school requires more than information—it requires access, exposure, and community. That’s why this partnership matters. Altra’s commitment to financial wellness and youth development aligns deeply with our mission to equip students with the tools they need to navigate their futures with confidence.

Because of their support, students will gain hands-on experience in financial literacy, college and career planning, and real-world decision-making—all at no cost to them.

This is what community investment looks like.

Thank you, Altra Federal Credit Union, for helping us pour into the next generation.

In January, 21 high school juniors and seniors joined our College & Career Boot Camp, eager to explore their future options.

Following the boot camp, 86% of participants reported increased confidence in their ability to navigate life after high school. The comprehensive curriculum covered college, trade school, military, and career options, resume development, and financial literacy, providing students with a clearer understanding of their choices. With newfound clarity and hope, students left the program better equipped to make informed decisions about their future.

PostGrad Ready is committed to providing students with the necessary tools and support to succeed, and we thank our partners, volunteers, and supporters for their role in this endeavor, which marks the beginning of a promising partnership.

🎉🎓 What. A. Day. 🎓🎉

The PostGrad Ready College & Career Boot Camp was an unforgettable launchpad for 25 driven, purpose-filled students who are preparing to take their next steps with clarity and confidence! 🙌🔥

These students—representing Northeast, Kenwood, Northwest, West Creek, Rossview, CMCSS Virtual, and Homeschool communities—showed up ready to plan, explore, and dream BIG.

From building resumes and exploring careers to learning about scholarships, setting goals, and figuring out how to fund their future, they left equipped and inspired. 💪

A huge thank you to the CMCSS staff and dedicated community partners who helped spread the word and encouraged students to participate; and the amazing team at the Clarksville-Montgomery County Public Library - North Branch for hosting us with warmth and support. We are so grateful for your commitment to youth in our community!
