Westridge School’s Partnership for Success Summer Enrichment Program for PUSD Girls
Westridge School is holding a five-week Partnership for Success (PFS) Summer Enrichment Program for PUSD girls! During this five-week summer enrichment program, WS host girls in grades 5 and 6 from Pasadena Unified School District. PFS students take classes including English, math, science and woodworking. In addition, they head on field trips and have special themed days like the one pictured above—Color Day! Students dressed up in various colors, played with bubble wands, and created fun, colorful chalk art around Ranney Court yesterday morning before heading to class. Check out Partnership for Success to see more of the fun and learning!
“As the name implies, Westridge is not alone in Partnership for Success (PFS), a collaboration with Pasadena Unified School District and four local independent schools, but it is close to our hearts and aligns directly with our work to empower girls through education. Each summer, PFS provides an intensive five-week enrichment program to approximately 400 public-school students who are chosen by their school principals based on their academic promise and financial need. We host female PFS students in 5th and 6th grade who take classes to help boost their math and verbal skills, preparing them for success in middle school. Our Upper School students and recent graduates serve as PFS interns and teacher aids.”
