Education Partners
Avenue Scholars provides comprehensive, individualized support to help Omaha-area youth of financial need identify, prepare for, and ultimately enter financially sustaining, high-demand careers requiring career training or continuing education. Support begins in the Scholars’ junior year of high school and continues uninterrupted through career training (postsecondary education) and for six months following career entry.
Scholars are selected for the program based on:
- Financial need (eligibility for free or reduced-price school lunches or a federal Pell Grant)
- Interest in pursuing a career in a high-demand career field requiring career training or continuing education
- Attendance at an Avenue Scholars partner high school
As of the fall of 2025, Avenue Scholars is serving Scholars in 13 partner high schools across seven school districts:
