Evaluation of the Hampton GEAR UP Program
Hampton City Schools, Hampton, VA (2008-2014)


EPI is the evaluator of the Hampton City Schools (VA) GEAR UP partnership grant, awarded in July 2008. This six-year initiative supports improvements in academic rigor, STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) career exploration, and parent involvement, and an expansion of the district’s AVID tutoring program for a double cohort of students in two high-poverty middle schools. Project responsibilities include survey development, data analysis, technical assistance, and preparation of annual and biennial evaluation reports.
