Congratulations to former Kumon Student and Paralympian Mikaela Jenkins for winning 2 gold medals at the 2021 Tokyo Paralympics this past August! One of the Kumon Math and Reading Program's main goals for students is to help them excel in academics so that they can dedicate extra time to their passions outside of the classroom. After Mikaela's time attending Kumon of Newburgh in Indiana with Instructor Sanju Jairath, she was able to do just that. This goes to show that the sky is truly the limit for all Kumon Students. There is nothing quite like watching our fellow Kumon alumni pursue their passions to achieve their dreams. Again, congratulations, Mikaela! https://www.wthr.com//531-8eb5bf79-d431-4af5-bff4-56389c36
