For the third year in a row, CSB/SJU students will be volunteering at Ames Elementary School in St. Paul on Saturday Mornings. With a student population of 285, roughly 80% of the pupils are considered students of color. The involvement of our students as mentors and role models had a very beneficial effect on the students of Ames.  The school has made AYP (Adequate Yearly Progress) in Math and Reading! The MN State and Federal Education Departments released the MCA II scores for 2006 - 2007!!!
