Mastery Charter Schools: Philadelphia and Camden
Jounce has supported principals, assistant principals, and teachers at several of the Mastery Charter Schools in Camden, NJ, and Philadelphia, PA. Mastery implements Eureka Math, KIPP Wheatley ELA, and Fundations phonics curricula, and assesses progress with the PSSA (Pennsylvania) and NJSLA (New Jersey) standardized assessments.

After working with Jounce for one year, 3rd grade ELA saw a 10% increase in proficiency, the highest year over year improvement in the school's history.
“Usually, organizations that have come in to offer help and support have been less than helpful. I’ve been here for 15 years, but last year, Jounce coaching was the most rewarding experience. I was shocked. It fundamentally has changed how I support my teachers in reading.”

Between 2022-23 and 2023-24, math proficiency tripled and reading proficiency increased from 5% to 25%.
“Last year, our school’s math proficiency tripled. And I really would attribute a lot of that to my work with my Jounce coach.”

Between 2022-23 and 2023-24, the number of students reading on grade level doubled.
“Our Jounce coach was specifically coaching my assistant principal of K-2 instruction in literacy. The habits that she developed and was able to really share with teachers helped them take on ownership of math as well. So in addition to more than doubling our school’s number of readers at grade level, we also exceeded our math goal.”
