🥇 Academic Success through Edmentum

Ok, but what does that mean?

Our State Alliance has made it possible for us to participate in a six-month pilot program using an online learning platform, called Edmentum.

Data indicates that academic growth is seen with use of 40-60 minutes per week per subject area for at least 8 weeks.

We are currently wrapping up reading and math assessments for all of our third graders. Once a baseline is established, kids will embark on their own learning path to master and build upon basic skills. The kids LOVE this!!! The program is complete with all the bells and whistles that make the modules exciting and interesting!

We have been using classroom space at College of The Albemarle for this, which is an added incentive since the kids like the fact that they are going to a "college" :)

🤸‍♀️ Fridays are for FUN!

Mr. Jimmie is one of our STEM instructors in Elizabeth City. But we all wear more than one hat at Boys & Girls Clubs of the Albemarle and that can mean supervising outdoor play on Fridays!

It looks like supervising turned into active participant in imaginative play! If you look closely 👀 they've got Mr. Jimmie all tied up!

😆 No staff was harmed on this Fun Friday.
The kids decided to set him free 😂

Mr. Jimmie is THE BEST! 🙌

The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Albemarle feed on average 275 kids a day, Monday through Friday in our Elizabeth City & Edenton locations! 👏
