Final Report
U.S. Department of Education, Institute of Education Sciences, National Center for Education Evaluation and Regional Assistance
2009. Alison Rebeck Black, Marie-Andrée Somers, Fred Doolittle, Rebecca Unterman, and Jean Baldwin Grossman.

This report presents two-year implementation and impact findings on two supplemental academic instruction approaches developed for after-school settings -- one for math and one for reading. It addresses whether one-year impacts are different in the second year of program operations and whether students benefit from being offered two years of enhanced after-school academic instruction.

Findings After the First Year of Implementation

2008. Alison Rebeck Black, Fred Doolittle, Pei Zhu, Rebecca Unterman, and Jean Baldwin Grossman

This report presents one-year implementation and impact findings on two supplemental academic instruction approaches developed for after-school settings — one for math and one for reading. Compared with regular after-school programming, the supplemental math program had impacts on student SAT 10 test scores and the supplemental reading program did not — although the reading program had some effect on reading fluency.
