The results are in...
And they are awesome! The all important DEF results for 2012-13 are in! (To learn more about the DEF and its importance for our students, check out this post). Out of 123 9th graders at Maourou Diarra, 109 passed the DEF and will be moving on to high school. This is a pass rate of 88%! Remember, in the 2010-11 school year, before NEP came to work at Maourou the pass rate was only 20%. Students at Maourou are now 4 times as likely to pass the DEF and move on high school as they were two years ago. This progress is amazing, but we still have so much more work to do. At École Saint Pierre, where the NEP operates Saturday cours privés but does not have a library, only 64 students out of 138 passed the DEF. This still represents an increase over last year, but a 46% pass rate is not acceptable. What we know, though, is that every single student that regularly attended Saturday cours privés at either school passed his or her DEF. We are succeeding in our mission to increase educational access for the children of Niamakoro, but we want to do more. Want to help us continue this incredible success? See how here.
