Welcome, Celebrations, Announcements & Partner Updates

Say Yes to Education – Emma Brown (55,000 degrees) shared background

information on Say Yes to Education. JCPS is in the initial planning stages and

will hopefully complete a RFP next month. Beginning as early as kindergarten,

and continuing through 12th grade and beyond, the services offered by Say Yes

community partners to every public school student (and their families) may

include tutoring; after-school programming; summer camp; school-based medical

care and counseling; advice on college admissions and financial aid; and free legal

assistance. Say Yes also helps communities develop a pathway of milestones to

post-secondary readiness — and to create systems for analyzing data to ensure

that students remain on track to graduate. Those who fall behind can receive

support services from a range of local partners, with the goal of eliminating

predictable barriers to achievement.
