Greenwich Education Group Supports Stamford-Based REACH Prep
REACH Prep is dedicated to providing transformative educational experiences to underserved, high-achieving students in CT and NY.

GREENWICH, CT — From Greenwich Education Group: As part of its ongoing effort to support Stamford and the surrounding communities, Greenwich Education Group provided much-needed support to Stamford-based REACH Prep, an organization dedicated to providing transformative educational experiences to underserved, high-achieving students in Fairfield and Westchester counties.
Greenwich Education Group (GEG) operates Stamford-based Links Academy, The Pinnacle School, and
The Spire School, as well as tutoring and test prep and college and educational consulting. GEG also
operates The Collaborative Center for Learning and Development, which is also located in Stamford and
offers individualized programs designed to meet the needs of a diverse group of learners.
The success of GEG's recent very successful Private Day & Boarding School Fair, which brought together
students and their families with over 100 top-ranked independent schools, allowed the group to present
donations to worthy local nonprofits, including REACH Prep. GEG presented REACH Prep with a check for
$3,500, which will go directly to support programming the REACH scholars, independent school
preparation and placement, academic enrichment, leadership training, and supplemental individual and
family guidance.

In addition to GEG's dedication to academic growth and individualized instruction, GEG is active in
community engagement and support through its philanthropic efforts. "Our educational mission, and
our dedication to the empowering all students in our community, includes a strong commitment to and
cooperation with worthy groups like REACH Prep, which shares our core values and dedication to our
next generation of leaders," said Victoria Newman, founder and executive director of Greenwich
Education Group. "We are very pleased to offer our support to REACH Prep to support the excellent
services they provide to this region's young people."
Greenwich Education Group was recently praised for its innovative approach to education in an article in
Innovation Excellence entitled "How some educators are creating unique learning options for students
who benefit from personalized education," in which Newman talks about overcoming student stress
factors and creating a positive learning environment. Part of that innovative approach includes matching
families with the best educational opportunities for their children, and towards that goal, GEG also
offers its Day & Boarding School Advisory Services which helps parents identify the best fit for each
child, and to prepare each student for this important educational journey.
