Leap Learning Systems

Leap Learning Systems is a Chicago-based organization that partners with schools and agencies in Chicago to provide quality programs that help children from preschool through high school build lifelong language and literacy skills. HEAR has awarded grants to Leap in 2008, 2009, and 2010. The current grant is to help fund a Language for Scholars (LFS) program for students in the Link Unlimited Program. LFS improves the speaking and communication skills of students, and brings individualized coaching directly to students who are preparing for high school, college or entry into the workplace. Leap staff gives a professional analysis of participants’ oral and written expression skills, and identifies personalized goals that guide participants’ learning and improvement.
