At Amaro Tan School, Incentives for Good Grades
Organization information
Nehemiah Gateway USA
Location: Boulder, United States of America
Summary
The 140 children ages 3-18 who attend Amaro Tan School, in Pogradec, Albania, come from challenging home environments. Most of them come from the Roma and Balkan Egyptian communities and have parents with limited (if any) education. This 1-year pilot project targets parents of Amaro Tan students. Lack of parental buy-in depresses student performance in school. This project invests parents in attendance and grades by offering credits at local grocery stores, awarded at the end of each trimester.
