Students targeted for additional interventions with a Reading Specialist gained an average of 31% improvement in reading levels while non-target students grew 34% by the end of the school year. With 3 dedicated staff (including at least 1 bilingual team member) and an average of 5 volunteers serving at every location each day, student/tutor ratio averaged 2.7:1 during the 1865 programming hours delivered in FY25. Every student also engaged in 5 structured STEM projects totaling 97.5 hours of STEM enrichment. 270538 16452 Adult Education: LaAmistad continues to offer ESL (English for Successful Living) as a core focus of its service to adults learning English. 341 students completed varying levels of English classes with an average final exam grade of 91.6%.

The evidence-based strategies and interventions were delivered by a bilingual speech-language pathologist and focused on fostering early literacy and communication skills, ensuring bilingual children start school ready to succeed. The innovative program focuses on 1) Motivation & Empowerment: Helping caregivers understand their role in fostering literacy in both Spanish and English; 2) Education & Tools: Equipping parents with strategies to support early language development; 3 )Practical Application: Modeling how caregivers can integrate literacy activities into daily routines; 4) Community Building: Connecting caregivers with others raising children of similar ages; and 5) Highlighting the importance of early screening for potential language/communication delays.Alumni: To track long-term program outcomes and extend its impact on its youth, LaAmistad entered its 2nd official year serving middle and high school students focused on academic support, personal and professional development, and college and career readiness. Highlights included campus tours at Emory University and University of Georgia, career exploration with Comcast and MailChimp, cultural exposure at the High Museum and the Fox Theatre, continued mentorship through a curated partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters, participation in the Latino College and Career Fair, and enrichment outings that included fishing in Helen, GA and Atlanta Sky Hawks basketball games. 191 active alumni were served through both educational and enrichment opportunities tailored to stakeholder feedback.
