Mission Statement

4 out of 5 kids are behind in math. Math scores consistently predict high school graduation rates. Low & Moderate income families are on average 3 years behind their well funded peers in mathematics. Children that start behind in mathematics tend to stay behind. Our goal is to ensure that kids- our fututre workforce- are never to give up their life dreams because of lack of eduaction. We are to ensure that every single family gets access to all necessary tools, advice, research that will help thier kids get a head start in life and proceed a career of their choice with no doubt in their math skills or ability to graduate successfully!
