Atlas Scholars is an innovative development program providing high school students with mentorship, scholarships, and exposure to performance-based, professional environments.


Introduction

Each year, a group of high school students participate in a transformational energy / finance-focused development program.

Recruitment is focused on students from a range of diverse backgrounds across Houston. Once accepted, students are a part of a dynamic three-year program consisting of summer internship sessions, year-round mentoring, energy / finance curriculum, field trips, industry-leading leading guest speakers, college preparation, and scholarships. The program exposes students to high-pressure, performance-based environments.

Students join a lifelong network and go on to become leaders in their communities and careers.


Atlas Scholars in the news

Atlas Scholars was featured on KPRC Channel 2's "Houston Newsmakers" with Khambrel Marshall.

I come from a humble background...neither of my parents finished university. When I was on the trading floor and saw these programs for the children of traders, of people in finance that really didn’t need that experience and exposure...I thought it would have been really great if I had had that kind of experience coming up.
