This is so cool, Arjun! I feel like your project is especially prevalent not only to New York City but also to other areas across the U.S. For example, my hometown is in Tennessee, where the youth proficiency rate in reading is under 30%. Thus far, Tennessee politicians have tried to tackle this problem through unproductive methods (like the Tennessee Third Grade Retention Law) that have largely harmed under-resourced communities. Needless to say, I think the implications of your project are immensely important, and I can't wait to see what you do with it in the future!
