Summer 2022 by the numbers

In summer 2022, NSSI partnered with 42 schools and districts, including New York City; Ector County, Texas; and Fulton County, Georgia. 27,000 students got a head start on the 2022-23 school year, and 2,700 teachers and school leaders geared up as never before!

Students learned—a lot.

Rapid academic gains

In just five weeks, students made major gains in proficiency across grades and subjects. On average, math students with NSSI improved more than 15 percentage points (from pre-test to post-test), and literature students improved 10 percentage points.

The results are in.

Hear from a returning partner

"We partner with NSSI because they are 'student first.'"

One of the key factors in deciding to partner another year with NSSI was the demonstrable impact of the program, with students making gains of 15–40% in priority grade level standards assessed through pre- and post-assessments. Moreover, students, families, and teachers continue to share with us their enthusiasm for the lessons, materials, and for the emphasis on social-emotional learning. We partner with NSSI because they are 'student first.'
