Learn More about Pathways to Academic Growth, Empowerment, and Success (PAGES):

Formerly Reducing Achievement Gaps (RAG), this unique, multi-tiered program addresses the academic, social, and basic assistance needs of low-income children of immigrant families in Framingham. JFS strives to ensure that immigrants and their families, including vulnerable children, have measurable improvement in economic stability, academic and career achievement and integration into their communities.

Interventions in elementary school are an important way to promote future academic and life achievement and build social equity. PAGES is a successful, evidence-based model and is led by JFS of Metrowest in collaboration with foundations, private donors, and the Framingham School Department.
