SUMMER MATH INSTITUTE SHOWS RESULTS!
This summer marked our second year of the pre-Algebra Summer Math Institute. Since 2009, 145 students have attended the Institute to prepare for success in Algebra 1. We are pleased to note that 72% of entering 8th grade students who participated in the program are currently enrolled in Algebra I, and 97% of the parents of 2010 students rated the Institute as "very positive." Studies show that students who take Algebra I by eighth or ninth grade are far more likely to take calculus in high school and pursue higher education than those who do not.
