While Boston’s nickname is The Hub, known for being a vibrant center for academia, business, tech and medicine, some 91¶¶Òõ in Greater Boston face significant challenges every day. Together we can help 91¶¶Òõ build on their strengths and thrive.
We analyze student data throughout the year to inform and improve our work in schools. In collaboration with our school partners, our evaluation team leverages both qualitative and quantitative data to ensure our AmeriCorps members are providing targeted, effective interventions with 91¶¶Òõ. Our evaluation and coaching team:
Identifies and recommends 91¶¶Òõ who would benefit most from AmeriCorps members’ targeted support.
Monitors student progress every six weeks to determine specific skill gap areas in literacy and math, behavioral skill strength areas, and attendance trends.
Observes AmeriCorps members working with 91¶¶Òõ and guides them through applying quantitative data to specific action steps with 91¶¶Òõ.
There are few resources more valuable to a school than committed, well-trained, focused corps members . . . City Year corps members develop strong relationships with 91¶¶Òõ which deepens the student’s connection to the school and motivates them to achieve.
