The quality of students’ transitions to middle and high school set the course from their educational future. Through partnerships with Norwalk Public Schools and community based programs, we are working to ensure that all students have the necessary skills to successfully transition from 5th to 6th grade and from 8th to 9th grade.

Those that do not accrue these credits are at a significantly increased risk of not graduating in 4 years. The graphic below shows the demographic breakdown of those earning enough credits to be considered “on track.”
