Olivia

Olivia and her mother Laverne smile in matching black sweatshirts with an arm around each other.

Olivia has been part of the GO Project community since 2022, and over time, her love for learning, and her confidence, has grown in big ways.​

One of her favorite parts of GO’s academic intervention was using the Get More Math app. “It’s a fun way to learn math,” she says, especially when it comes to mastering multiplication. With extra support, Olivia feels more comfortable tackling math problems and setting goals for herself.​

Olivia is focused on improving in math, reading, and writing and she’s excited about all the new things she can discover, especially during her favorite school activity: visiting the library. “There are a lot of books for me to discover and learn from,” she shares.​

Her mom, Laverne, has seen the impact of GO’s intervention firsthand. “It’s helping her improve on her math skills,” she says. “Intervention has helped strengthen her multiplication skills.”​
