Every great summer starts with a team that’s all in. 💙☀️

A huge thank you to our incredible summer interns for the spirit, dedication, and heart they’ve brought to our program this season.

At Breakthrough, everyone comes together to create a truly impactful experience. Your work has been instrumental in making this summer a success, and your contributions have helped our students learn, grow, and thrive.

Join us in recognizing these seven amazing interns: Brandon, Destiny, Katelyn, Lei Lei, and BTSV students Alessa, Emily, and Fatima. Thank you for being such an important part of our mission. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Ready to join the Breakthrough community? We’re currently hiring interns for the 2026-27 school year and will be posting opportunities for Summer 2027 later this fall. You can find all of our open internship positions on our website

What a special moment for our 9th-grade students!

We were honored to welcome author Martha Niño to our summer program, where she shared her wisdom, connected with students, and personally signed their books. Through this collaboration, our students are seeing their cultures and experiences reflected in literature while finding inspiration to tell their own stories.

Thank you, Martha, for making our students feel seen, celebrated, and inspired ✨

At Breakthrough Silicon Valley, we know student success starts with family. Our Parent Council led the way in our Financial Literacy Series, giving families the tools to grow alongside their students. This is how we create lasting change.

We would like to extend our deepest appreciation to TechCU . With their guidance—covering budgeting, credit, college savings, and career readiness—our families gained the tools to support their children with confidence at every step.
