LA School Reporter OpEd

826LA’s Executive Director, Jaime Balboa, was recently featured on The LA School Reporter. Jaime shared his insight on declining literacy rates in the United States, his personal experiences as an educator, and creative solutions to further support Los Angeles students.

"What’s at stake is not whether students can pass an assessment. It’s whether young people have opportunities to develop their voices, build confidence in their ideas, and view themselves as capable readers and expressive writers."
