Recently, Amscot Financial and Progress Telecom joined the City of St. Petersburg and Mayor Rick Baker’s Office to help initiate the Partnership to Advance School Success (PASS) Program at Clearview Elementary School. The PASS Program is an initiative designed by the Council for Educational Change to increase student achievement in low performing schools by empowering the leadership of the principal using corporate strategies.
Amscot Financial, along with Progress Telecom, will contribute strategic business planning, mentoring and financial resources over the next three years to assist the school in reaching its objectives: to reach and maintain an “A” status as measured by Florida’s A+ Plan and to reach and maintain Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) as measured by the No Child Left Behind Act.
