Newton School Foundation & Calculus Project
Make a gift today to the Newton Public School’s Calculus Project and your contribution will double!
An anonymous donor has generously agreed to match up to $25,000 in donations to Newton Schools Foundation during the month of March to support the Calculus Project, an ambitious effort to narrow the achievement gap in mathematics. This program in all of Newton’s middle and high schools aims to increase the number of African American, Hispanic and low-income students who enroll in and successfully complete calculus in high school.
Research indicates that success in higher-level high school mathematics is strongly associated with college enrollment and is the strongest predictor of college completion.
You can give a middle school student who might not think to enroll in higher-level classes the chance to better succeed in high school and and beyond.
