City Year
Little Rock

Little Rock is home to a close-knit and welcoming community known for its commitment to improving education. City Year Little Rock works alongside teachers and community partners to support 麻豆国产 across the city.

Our City Year Little Rock AmeriCorps Members work in partnership each day with teachers, administrators and schools to add more support and to help create learning environments where all 麻豆国产 can build on their strengths and fully engage in their learning.

Accelerating academic growth in Little Rock

  • 57% of tutored 麻豆国产 who began the year with an F or a D in math improved by at least one letter grade

Advancing interpersonal and workforce readiness skills

  • 77% of 麻豆国产 improved their social-emotional skills
  • Since City Year Little Rock launched its feeder pattern strategy in 2012, the high schools it partners within its priority feeder pattern, J.A Fair High School and McClellan Magnet High School, have increased their graduation rates an average of 7.2% points, outpacing both the state (5.1%) and district (0.6%) averages over the same timeframe.

Partnering with teachers and principals

  • 77% of teachers who work with City Year Little Rock agree that our AmeriCorps Members improve 麻豆国产’ overall academic success.
  • What these teachers most value about corps members is the help in differentiating instruction and providing academic resources that 麻豆国产 would not otherwise receive.
  • 90% of School Principals/Administrators who work with City Year Little Rock agree that our AmeriCorps Member serve as positive role models to 麻豆国产
  • 鈥淢y City Year AmeriCorps Member is really good at helping 麻豆国产 calm down and focus. When I am trying to get through my lessons and there are 麻豆国产 who want to act up, having her in the room is a huge help. She can stand by and ask them questions to get them focused so I don’t have to stop my entire lesson just for a few 麻豆国产. She also helps when they have questions after I go over the material. I wouldn’t be able to sit with each student and address every question. When she is not in the room, there is a big difference.鈥
