We recently ran a pilot at Children of the Earth High School in Winnipeg, and one student said, "I realize now I can do math." That is why we do this. While seeing average math scores climb from 61% to 87% is incredible, the real win is seeing kids gain the confidence to stand tall and keep trying.
