Everyone On Madison aims to teach computer literacy and bridge the digital divide, Reading?

Shelly Mesch:

The entry-level syllabus for the program can seem too simple to people who use computers on a daily basis. But for some, a step-by-step and bare-bones lesson helps them get back on track when they’ve spent time outside of the digital sphere.

Jerriesene Alexander came to the class to brush up on her computer skills. She used computers years ago, but so much has changed that she thought a refresher course would help her navigate complex programs and be comfortable with terminology.

Mitchell Julius was required to participate in the program through his enrollment in the Catholic Multicultural Center’s culinary job training program. He said he already had some familiarity with computers but still benefited from the course.

Madison has long tolerated disastrous reading results, despite spending far more than most.

A is for average.
