Practice Makes Perfect (organization)

Practice Makes Perfect (PMP) is a nonprofit organization that partners with communities to create summer enrichment programs for inner-city youth from elementary school to college matriculation using a near-peer model. The organization pairs skills development for younger students with leadership development, career training and college prep for older students. PMP matches academically struggling elementary and middle school students with older, higher achieving mentor peers from the same inner-city neighborhoods. Trained college interns and certified teachers supervise the near-peer relationship for a five-week program.
In 2013, PMP was recognized at the Clinton Global Initiative University Conference.〔("President Clinton and Chelsea Clinton Conclude Sixth Annual Clinton Global Initiative University", Clinton Foundation, April 7, 2013, accessdate=24 February 2015 )〕
==Goal==
For over a century, scholars have recognized that summer vacation is a period when students’ rate of academic development declines relative to the school year.〔Entwisle, D., Alexander, K., & Olson, L. 2000. “Summer Learning and Home Environment.” In R. Kahlenberg Ed., A Notion at Risk: Preserving Public Education as an Engine for Social Mobility pp. 9-30. New York: Century Foundation Press.〕 The gap in the learning cycle which occurs during summer vacation is more prominent for children that are less advantaged.〔Cooper, H., Nye, B., Charlton, K., Lindsay, J., & Greathouse, S. 1996. “The effects of summer vacation on achievement test scores: A narrative and metaanalytic review.” Review of Educational Research, 66, pp. 227–268〕 Some studies indicate that this may have long term effects on a students school career and eventual job prospects.〔Alexander, K., Entwisle, D., & Olson, L. 2007. Summer learning and its implications: Insights from the Beginning School Study. In R. Fairchild, & G. Noam Eds., “Summertime : Confronting Risks, Exploring Solutions” pp. 33-43. San Francisco : Jossey-Bass/Wiley〕
Research has shown that approximately two-thirds of the ninth-grade achievement gap between lower and higher income youth can be partly explained by earlier summer learning loss. Students from low-income areas lose between 2.5 to 3.5 months of academic learning each summer, and teachers spend four to six weeks of the new school year reviewing old material."Practice Makes Perfect" attempts to address his "learning lag" through a summer education program in socioeconomically disadvantaged neighborhoods.
