Looking Forward
Data collection proves effectiveness of programs
93% of students w/ 2 years in MpowR programs will improve GPA by an average of 0.97 grade points!!
Continuity / continuation of programs important for student success.
Looking Forward Despite overall gains,
many students still struggling studying in their second language.
Could use more staff (2-3 staff per site not enough) or staff volunteer recruiter, both would make program more effective.
