Through ABACUS and its granting approach, HCF hopes to create a unifying vision that will generate new partnerships, reallocate resources and reorganize programs and resources to create a more co-ordinated and integrated system in Hamilton that will better serve the needs of students in the middle-school years.

We are interested in learning more from teachers of Grades 6,7 and 8 on the types of strategies/interventions that, from your experience, benefit students in the middle school grades and support them on their path to postsecondary education. Additional information about ABACUS can be found at www.ABACUSatHCF.ca

If you would be willing to share your thoughts and ideas, please email us at s.charters@hamiltoncommunityfoundation.ca.

Thank you!
