The CAPITAL Foundation Tutoring Project

The ongoing CAPITAL Tutoring Project brings together students from the Ethnic Studies (ES) Department at Sacramento State University and local high school students with the purpose of providing tutoring and mentoring in English and math classes. The goal of the Tutoring Project is to increase passing rate and standardized English and math test scores. ES students, some of whom graduated from local high schools, serve as positive role models that inspire and encourage the younger students to strive to attend college.
