The Philadelphia School Partnership (PSP) unveiled a $300,000 grant Tuesday to Saints John Neumann and Maria Goretti High School, better known as Neumann-Goretti.

The Catholic school in South Philadelphia will use the funds to eliminate the school's traditional "tracking" system and replace it with a broader college-access and honors placement programs.

“Rigorous instruction, enhanced faculty professional development, the use of data to drive instruction and results, and a culture that values strong academics and character development will all contribute to a learning environment in which all of our students are prepared to succeed in college and in life," Neumann-Goretti President Bruce Robinson said in a statement.

Drawn from PSP's Great School Fund, the turnaround grants are used to improve academic outcomes for all students, especially low-income and minority students. To date, PSP has invested $53 million in Philadelphia schools, five million of which went to private schools.

Neumann-Goretti says that 45 percent of its 500 students are members of minority groups, and 48 percent come from low-income families.
