Overview
DreamCatchers is a local nonprofit that runs an after-school academic and social support program for low-income students who attend middle school in the high-performing Palo Alto Unified School District (PAUSD). The majority of PAUSD students come from White or Asian households where parents hold college degrees; the majority hold graduate degrees. The students DreamCatchers works with are primarily Latino, African American, and Pacific Islander. Almost all live in households where no parent holds a college degree. This grant will support the hiring of professional consultants to evaluate the relevance, quality, effectiveness, and efficiency of the DreamCatchers middle school after-school tutoring program, in order to highlight positive program features and improve practices.
