It's a beautiful day in Waukegan to celebrate the culmination of Saturday School, a partnership between Oakdale Elementary and STS. Thanks to all the students, tutors, mentors, and parents for an incredible 10 weeks! Over the last 5 1/2 months students who participated saw an average decrease of 21% in office discipline referrals and an 89% increase in reading scores. It was truly a tremendous achievement by all!
