• Free after-school tutoring staffed by classroom teachers;
• Online technology subscriptions and training;
• Direct student assistance with college application fees, standardized testing fees, and First Step Awards
• Classroom supplies grants for every teacher to ensure that they have the materials they need for in-person learning.
