My Project

IS 181 is a Title 1 middle school in the Bronx, NY; 81% of our students are identified as economically disadvantaged. We serve grades 6-8. Our students are 62.1% Black or African American and 25.8% Hispanic/Latinx. We have a large special education population.

One student per class per month will earn prizes based on their growth in the math classroom, not just overall performance.

These materials will be used for prizes for students nominated by their math teachers in the building. These prizes appeal to what motivates our students, and we hope to encourage them to persevere through their math work!
