E.L. Haynes' mission is to ensure that every E.L. Haynes student of every race, socioeconomic status, and home language will reach high levels of academic achievement and be prepared to succeed at the college of his or her choice. An important part of being prepared for college is understanding how to select the right program for you and planning as a family how to finance a college education. We have compiled some resources to help our families. We hope to build upon this information. If you have resources you would like to share with other families, please contact Beth Hood, Director of Family and Community Outreach at bhood@elhaynes.org or 202-667-4446.
