Jumpstart

Jumpstart is a national early education organization working toward the day every child in America enters kindergarten prepared to succeed. Work-study students through Jumpstart inspire children to develop a love of learning. They are paired one-to-one with a preschool child to: build language and literacy skills crucial to success in school and in life; spend time reading books with a partner child; and play literacy games. Jumpstart Corps members and Team Leaders implement the Jumpstart curriculum in preschool classrooms and serve as an aid to teachers.
