At IAPTS, Inc. (Inspiring Academic Progress Through Sports), we believe in leveling the playing field—on and off the field. Our mission is to ensure every student has the opportunity to grow academically, socially, and athletically, no matter their circumstances.
Because no student should lose access to opportunity due to temporary struggles.
Refer a Student Become a MentorSome student athletes face challenges that put both their education and athletic goals at risk. We’re here to make sure that setbacks don’t become barriers.
Our support includes:
Mentoring & Tutoring: Personalized academic and behavioral support to help students improve grades, stay on track, and grow in confidence.
Advocacy & Reintegration: We work directly with families, schools, and coaches to help students regain eligibility and rejoin sports programs.
For students who are thriving academically and athletically, we provide additional resources to help them keep pushing forward.
We offer:
Sporting Equipment: Quality gear provided to ease the financial burden of athletic participation.
College Counseling: One-on-one support to help student athletes prepare for college admissions and athletic recruitment.
Scholarships: Financial awards recognizing outstanding talent, dedication, and leadership in sports and school.
We believe sports can be the turning point in a student’s life. Our scholarships help turn potential into opportunity.
