We interviewed Jacqueline M Cotugno, who works with jumpstart, over the phone in order to find out a little more about jumpstart. Although she reiterated many of the things we heard at the Jumpstart breakfast, she did impress upon us a few new things. She talked about what the college students learned in the program: responsibility, problem solving, working with people, and time management. The other thing that she said, in response to our asking about unmotivated children, was that preschoolers are at an age where they are still eager to learn and by reaching them at that age they are often able to help them stay motivated through school. The big idea she was getting at was, providing support, and a sense of community for the preschoolers, and the college students.
