Fidelis Partners With Whitney Middle School
Fidelis Insurance Holdings – the Bermuda headquartered global specialty insurance business — announced a partnership with Whitney Institute Middle School.
A spokesperson said, “Under the new agreement, Fidelis Insurance will sponsor extra tutoring for certain students between the ages of 11 – 13 for the remainder of the academic year. The students, chosen by teachers at Whitney Institute, have a variety of learning needs and academic potential that could be further expanded by additional tutoring. The first cohort will see five pupils benefit from the tuition, with the agreement providing an opportunity to expand the partnership.”
