About this organization
Mission

About
The after-school enrichment program served 251 parents and children during the two school years 2017-2018 and 2018-2019. The program's primary operation is from 3:00pm to 6:30pm, Monday through Friday during the school year. The program also provides services for early dismissals and used these days and other extended service days to partner with the Houston Public Library to expose the students to a variety of enrichment activities. The mainstay of the program is to become an extension of the classroom by providing homework help and tutoring in math and reading. Computer-based reading and math assessment software is used to measure and assess progress throughout the year. Parental involvement is encouraged through volunteering.
