Powerhouse Progress Report

Hillcrest's Powerhouse Tutoring Center finished its first year in May and is looking forward to its second year when school resumes in a couple weeks. Hard to believe how fast time flies. When we submitted a grant to the Sioux Falls Area Community Foundation we identified three goals:

1. 75% of the students will have less than 10 unexcused absences from school



2. 75% of the students will have a C or better grade for their English classes



3. 75% of the students will have a C or better grade for their Math classes

Our director, Jessi, recently compiled the results:

1. 91% of the students had less than 10 unexcused absences from school



2. 91% of the students finished with a C or better in their English classes



3. 100% of the students finished with a C or better in their Math classes

Couldn't be happier to the good work that Jessi and the volunteers did this past year!

We're also looking for volunteers for this next school year, so if you have free time on school days from 4-6 PM and like middle school students, let me know.
