Fall means two things we’re excited about at FocusQuest: the vibrant celebrations of HBCU Homecoming season and the meaningful conversations shaping the State of Our Schools.

Homecoming is always a powerful reminder of the pride, tradition, and community that make HBCUs so unique. It reaffirms why we stay focused on building partnerships that uplift institutions, students, and alumni year-round.

At the same time, our recent participation in the State of Our Schools Address in New York City highlighted our commitment beyond higher education. As a Student Acquisition and Success Partner (SSP), we’re working with middle and high schools to create stronger academic pipelines that prepare students for college and beyond, expanding access, building equity, and ensuring long-term student success.

This season, our focus remains clear: celebrating the legacy of HBCUs while creating pathways that carry students from the classroom to career and lifelong opportunity.
