Program Report
Dajuan King, Program Director We are only a few weeks into 2024, and our team is already showing the same level of commitment, dedication, and intentionality to the programs and students! We kicked off the new year with our Spring Training Week, and took some time refining our approach to assessments and individualized literacy plans. It may have been a cold couple of weeks, but training week has our team warmed up and ready to go! There are so many amazing initiatives underway that we know will both broaden and deepen our impact with the students and families we serve. In regards to family engagement, we are looking to keep ramping up the number of events we are hosting with families both on-site and off-site. We are also looking to significantly increase the number of enrichment partners we collaborate with. One of our ongoing goals continues to be exposing students to more new and exciting learning opportunities. The word I have been using to describe this upcoming year for us at Chicago HOPES is "Aspirational." We have many aspirations for the next few years, and this year will be pivotal in setting the foundation for us to continue to build. We are looking forward to sharing updates with you on our many upcoming successes! Please feel free to contact our volunteer team to get involved and have a direct hand in the impact being done! |
