We are honored to support this work!

Thanks to a grant from Partner For Student Success, we were able to fund the expansion of St. Cloud Area School District 742's PAKCAT (Partners and Kids Counting a lot Together) program to include Discovery Community School Kindergarten classrooms!

"My Kindergarteners have learned the different math activities by practicing them with their 5th-grade Dolphin Buddies. It has been fun to see the 5th graders teach the littles how to do the activities and have them read the stories aloud. My students look forward to the 'big kids' coming to teach them and play the math games, even asking me multiple times a week 'when they are coming to play math'." - Ms. Dahlof, teacher

Join in the fun this weekend!
