THE SBCC PROMISE OFFERS TWO YEARS OF COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORT (COVERING ALL REQUIRED FEES, BOOKS, AND SUPPLIES) TO ANY LOCAL STUDENT WHO ENROLLS FULL TIME AT SBCC IN THE FALL OR SPRING SEMESTER FOLLOWING THE COMPLETION OF THEIR SECONDARY EDUCATION WITHIN THE SBCC DISTRICT. IN THE 2022-2023 ACADEMIC YEAR, MORE THAN 1,600 SBCC PROMISE STUDENTS WERE ENROLLED. RESEARCH ON COLLEGE ACHIEVEMENT CORRELATES A STUDENT'S CHANCE OF SUCCESS WITH EARLY ENROLLMENT, FULL-TIME STUDENT STATUS, AND ACCESS TO ACADEMIC COUNSELING AND SUPPORT. THE SBCC PROMISE INCLUDES ALL OF THESE ELEMENTS, PROVIDING $1.8 MILLION IN SUPPORT TO SBCC PROMISE STUDENTS IN THE 2022-2023 ACADEMIC YEAR.

THE SBCC FOUNDATION ALSO CONTINUED TO FUND IMPORTANT STUDENT SUPPORT PROGRAMS THAT SERVE SINGLE-PARENT STUDENTS, UNDERPREPARED HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES, AND THOSE RECENTLY RELEASED FROM THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM WHO ARE STARTING COLLEGE. ACCORDING TO THE COLLEGE FUTURES FOUNDATION, SCHOLARSHIPS ALSO HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON STUDENT MATRICULATION RATES.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
