We met with the strong leadership team at Marygrove Elementary to review the progress of young scholars (K-2nd) in our afterschool program. The leadership team and great teachers worked with us to achieve these breakthrough results. Their ask was that we assist in addressing academic gaps early in the educational journey of youth. We are thankful for this opportunity and look forward to the continued progress of these bright scholars. Note: Math and Reading Growth - measured as typical growth; the average annual growth for students at their grades and placement levels on their baseline diagnostics.
