Math Corps

We’re one of a handful of orgs & school districts chosen by @Accelerate_US to join the 2024 cohort of Call to Effective Action grantees. This grant will help us make our tutoring model easier for schools to implement & help us grow our research. Congrats to all the grantees!

Math multiplies a student’s future opportunities! Apply now to become a tutor in the 2024-25 school year. The most important qualification is the desire to make a difference. Visit join.readingandmath.org to find an opportunity near you.
