Springboard Collaborative
2014-2017
Springboard Collaborative closes the reading achievement gap by coaching teachers, training family members, and incentivizing learning so that young scholars have the requisite skills to access life opportunities.
Springboard's flagship offering is an intensive, five-week summer literacy program for Pre-K through 3rd grade students and their families. At each partner school site, they train teachers to implement the curriculum, engage parents to continue reading at home, and provide educational incentives—including books and tablets—to encourage young readers to excel.
Arbor Rising partnered with the Springboard Collaborative management team on a number of key deliverables, including:
Financial Model — to monitor fundraising progress, create multiyear budget projections, and track key programmatic outcomes
Communication Materials — to convey Springboard Collaborative’s unique value proposition to prospective funding partners
Board Management – tools and standards for recruiting, managing, and engaging the organization’s board of directors
Data Analysis — statistical evaluation of historical outcomes to refine programming and inform marketing efforts
