We're sharing more end-of-year celebration photos - this time from Page Street Elementary in Montgomery County, NC. Graduating Future Forward scholars enjoyed pizza, a tutors vs. students trivia game, diplomas, and goodie bags!

We're so proud of our students' reading progress and all the work we've done this year in Montgomery County! 🚀

News from Future Forward! Two of our Kindergarten students at Limestone Elementary made big strides recently. Both improved their reading level and passed their Phonological Awareness (PA) assessments they have been working so hard on! We are so proud of them! 🥳

Go behind the scenes of our latest family event in Montgomery County, NC! Last week, students and families from Grassy Pond and Star Elementaries came together to celebrate spring with snacks, activities, and lots of smiles. 🌷😄

Future Forward's tutors are the glue that holds our program together. Meet one of our Wisconsin Rapids tutors, Kaydence! 🚀✨

"Hello! My name is Kaydence McGregor. I started tutoring at Howe Elementary for Future Forward this past fall. I am still very new to the position, but I love being a part of this incredible program. I come from a large family of 7: with 1 older brother, 2 younger brothers, and 3 younger sisters. I have experience in lifeguarding and I am also currently working at Dog Star Resort (now called R & L Prairie Oasis, LLC) where I work with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I enjoy playing hockey in my free time and also love painting and crocheting.

I graduated last spring in 2024. I am still unsure of what the future holds, but tutoring has taught me that I love working with kids and inspiring them to push through challenges. It is incredibly rewarding to see the excitement on their faces when those tough ideas finally click. I still do not know what career path I want to pursue, but I know that I would like to continue encouraging young minds to learn and grow."
