Kumon Of Bedford And Nashua Presents $2,000 Tuition Scholarship To Local Student

Press Release
12/05/2011

Kumon, the world’s largest after-school math and reading program, has given students across the northeast region the opportunity to invest in their education.  As part of the “Kumon Fall Scholarship Sweepstakes” campaign, the Kumon Math and Reading Center of Nashua and Bedford awarded a local student, Michael Shottes with a $2,000 scholarship in Kumon Tuition.  Kumon presented twelve scholarships, totaling $24,000, across the northeast region.   

“Our mission is to bring the Kumon Method of Learning to as many children as possible, and we felt that this sweepstakes gave more students the chance to commit themselves to furthering their education,” says John Marsh, general manager of the northeast region. “The Kumon Scholarship Sweepstakes is an opportunity for new students to experience the benefits of the Kumon Math and Reading Program, and existing students to continue enriching their academic career.”
 
The contest received more than 16,000 entries during the month of October, and was open to anyone over the age of 12 who visited a local Kumon Center and filled out an entry form.

Kumon’s individualized approach helps children progress by ability rather than age or grade. In the U.S., 220,000 students from preschool to high school are developing their math and reading skills independently and gaining confidence through Kumon’s Method of Learning. More than half of U.S. Kumon students study advanced math, and 24 percent of these students are learning materials two to three years above their grade level.

Kumon has 26,000 centers in 46 countries and more than four million students studying worldwide. Kumon opened its first center in the United States in 1974, and has since grown to more than 1,300 centers across the country.  The company’s North American headquarters is in Teaneck, New Jersey.
