We’re beyond excited to be hosting our newest To&Through Middle Grades Network (MGN) schools at @UChicagoCrown today for our Cohort 2 Kick Off! @asrichardson opened the morning & @MckoywithaK led a Student Profiles activity to reacquaint us with our middle school selves & needs

Our latest series of Data Insights are out! As always, these data viz's start with the importance of freshman year, but now delve into sophomore year, different college transitions, how Chicago student attainment looks by community area, over time, & more. toandthrough.uchicago.edu/data-insights
The To&Through team is a small, close-knit group of analysts & practitioners who are deeply committed to making CPS schools more equitable for marginalized students. If you have education & writing experience, apply to be a part of our team! Learn more: ewa.org/jobs/senior-ca…

Update: Applications to be a part of the To&Through Middle Grades Network are now due January 21! We are launching a new cohort of 4 to 6 public schools on the south and west sides that are ready to redefine the middle grades experience. Learn more: toandthrough.uchicago.edu/mgn-cohort-2-a…

So excited about this project!!
Our study showed the normative path thru #college isn't typical for @ChiPubSchools grads. Their paths define a different normal, & it inspired us to seek out their stories. We'll share 5 this week. How'd students define a new normal to you this year? Read: toandthrough.medium.com/eb412409d4d7
