Are you considering a gap year or do you want to dedicate a year of post-graduate service? Come learn about SAGA Innovations and how you can get involved in our work in Chicago or New York City.

SAGA transforms the lives of at-risk students giving them the skills, the attention and the self-esteem they need to achieve. JOIN US in this work. As a SAGA Fellow, you will spend a school year working in an underperforming Chicago or New York City public school. You will provide personalized tutoring to the same 14 students every day in groups of 1 tutor: 2 students. SAGA tutoring occurs as a stand-alone class period and is built into the regular school day as an elective course for credit. Through this high dosage tutoring model, Fellows have been able to achieve extraordinary results. In Chicago, for example, SAGA students gained more than 2.5 years of growth in math in just one year of tutoring.
