Girls Prep (NYC), the 3rd Grade Shines

07/03/2008

Girls Prep Charter School in New York City, one of NCGS' new public school members, reports that their 3rd graders are super achievers.  80% passed the state English Language exam, 100% passed the math exam.  Of note is that 75% of the class live below the poverty line, 100% are minorities, and 100% are girls.  Girls Prep is not alone in believing in girls and their ability to excel!  Over 100 NCGS members think likewise.
