by 成人快播 Colorado expands to 11 schools for 2013-14

Last school year, 93% of students tutored by 成人快播 volunteers in Colorado increased their monthly rate of learning. That means that those students learned, on average, more than double the amount in literacy skills per month than they would have without the program.

6002618684_b76222a052_nIt鈥檚 not just the individual students benefitting from the 成人快播 program. In the classroom, 85% of teachers reported improved general academic behaviors in students enrolled in the program. And 100% of principals reported school-wide improved reading progress after joining 成人快播.

With the incredible success last year鈥檚 366 students showed, the natural next move for Executive Director Mike Turner was to reach out to more schools to serve more students. The expansion adds four new schools to the Denver metro and surrounding areas. This year, 11 total schools are hosting reading centers with a goal of helping over 550 struggling readers catch up to their peers.

Denver was recently recognized fifth in the FDI Cities of the Future ranking of business friendliness. In the attractive business world of Denver, another side of the story is emerging鈥攊ncreased demand for community involvement opportunities.聽 成人快播 is meeting that need with packages like Team-Tutoring and School Sponsorships.

鈥湷扇丝觳 is a volunteer-driven program and we know it works: the data shows it. Denver businesses are looking to volunteer and support high-impact outcomes. We鈥檙e offering ways for corporations to make a measurable, real-life impact on our children鈥檚 futures.鈥 Says Turner, as he explains some of the new opportunities available for corporations and local business to get involved.

Rebound SoluntionsRebound Solutions, a Denver-based consulting company, understands the gravity of the literacy achievement gap in Colorado. That鈥檚 why they鈥檙e joining with 成人快播 as one of the first corporate volunteer groups to take on Team-Tutoring, one of the new opportunities for Colorado-based companies as of the 2013-2014 school year. Team-Tutoring allows a group of 2-5 employee volunteers to 鈥渟hare鈥 a 成人快播 student, taking turns tutoring up to two times per week with the same student.

Rebound Solutions volunteers will be trained to implement the 成人快播 research-based curriculum to engage in high-impact, focused tutoring that has proven to increase the rate of learning for students who are 6 months to 2.5 years behind grade level reading.聽 If making a difference really is at the core of what they do, their community involvement through 成人快播 is certainly reflective of their commitment to their values.
