All programs in the 5th Quarter are dedicated to providing high-quality academic and enrichment programs, and fostering students’ social-emotional skill development. To understand the impact of 5th Quarter programs on students and to inform future program improvement,
5th Quarter programs will be expected to implement common evaluation tools, including the following:
Collect 5th Quarter student consent forms

Track student and staff attendance in Boston Beyond’s Partner Portal*
Host a third-party observation*
