Smart Kids, Inc. was created to help end the repeated cycles of poverty through education and to help our students, our future leaders to become more successful.
The Tutor Me Program's mission is: We are committed to increasing the learning capacity of every child by helping them realize their full potential. The Tutor Me Program provides 1:1 sustainable tutoring and academic support programming to at-risk and low-to-moderate K-12 students in the Greater St. Louis Metropolitan Area. Through the TMP and (TITC), we provide 1:1 and small group tutoring/mentoring, homework help, charter development, and STEM activities during the school months of September - May.
