Our initial beneficiary, Creative Learning @ FPC, provides daily after school tutoring and helps with homework to improve the skills of students with working parents.
The students, Grades K-5, come from the Stamford public schools. All students, especially the English-language learners, receive support to improve reading and math skills.
HOMEWORK HELP
Students are able to finish their homework every day without relying solely on their own translation abilities, or those of their parents.
INTEREST IN LEARNING
We have seen non-readers become interested book seekers and math begins to make sense.
VOLUNTEERS
The Creative Learning After School Program is comprised of volunteer tutors.
SCHOLARSHIPS
Since its inception in 2009, 75 percent of the students receive scholarship aid. The program relies on sponsors and donors to cover most expenses.
