After more than a decade of aiding younger students, the Schools of Hope project is heading to high school.
The Schools of Hope Leadership Team, a 27-member community group, decided Wednesday to establish a tutoring program for ninth graders in the Madison School District.
More than 50 volunteer adult tutors — and possibly many more — will be sought to serve at least an hour a week in high schools.

  1. Is there any evidence, anecdotal or otherwise, that shows the Schools of Hope project has had any influence on the success of minority students in the MMSD? Or is it, as they say, simply a civic journalism project- the implication being that if the media writes enough positive stories about how their own project is making a difference, then the consumers of said media (and that media themselves) actually start to believe their project is being successful?
