Description
With our 15-Unit Curriculum, each child will learn all the aspects of reading from phonics to vocabulary and listening to behavioral skills. Our curriculum is taught sequentially from a multisensory perspective. Each child is given an assessment test on the first day of enrollment. Their progress is monitored and reviewed weekly. We offer tutoring for the K-3rd grader who may have missed a good literacy foundation, thus improving their chance of academic success.
The Program targets children that are at the greatest risk of educational failure to have equal access to literacy and other educational and life skill building opportunities and resources. The Program also targets illiterate parents at or below the poverty level to provide literacy and employment opportunities. All children are welcomed! Executive Director, Valjean Adams.
