After School Tutoring Program |
|
|
|
|
| FOR WHOM? |
Homework Help for 4th - 8th graders |
| WHEN? |
3:30 - 4:20, immediately after school |
| BEGINNING? |
After Labor Day Week-end |
| WHERE? |
Henry-Senachwine Grade School in the cafeteria |
| COST? |
FREE - We do expect parents/students to work at
fundraisers which helps pay for the tutors and for the snacks the
students receive after school. |
| |
|
|
|
HOW DO YOU SIGN UP? |
|
|
- Parents need to complete and return the Registration
Form to Bev Privratsky in the Grade School Office.
|
|
WHO WOULD BE IN CHARGE? |
|
|
- The PROJECT SUCCESS Board has hired two (2) supervising
tutors. These people will oversee the tutoring and will be
responsible for arranging additional volunteers to help 'tutor'.
|
|
HOW WILL PARENTS KNOW WHERE THEIR
CHILDREN ARE? |
|
|
- On the Registration Form, parents will sign
their student up for 'full time' OR 'part time'. Parents need to
'work something out with their child' so they know whether or not
their child is staying for the tutoring session OR coming home.
|
|
CAN STUDENTS SERVE DETENTIONS IN THIS
PROGRAM? |
|
|
- ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!! To
attend our tutoring program is a privilege. If a student
receives a detention, he/she did not earn the privilege to
attend. This program is also not a latch key
program. Students who attend will have to do work. If
students misbehave, we will contact parents and they will no longer be
able to attend.
|
|
WHY DID WE DEVELOP SUCH A PROGRAM? |
|
|
- A survey completed by parents indicated a need for such a
program. There are many students whose parents either do not
have the time, the skills, OR the desire to help them with their
homework. We hope that by offering such a program, students
would have the opportunity to obtain help with their
homework. Students who attended the program last year overall
did better in school. Parents of the participating students have
applauded the program.
