During the past two summers, we offered tutoring to students who might otherwise be retained. We emphasize the lessons that reflect student s real life experiences. We use student behavior as the benchmark to evaluate learned social skills. In the secondary school, the needs and the schedules of the students fashions a variety of programming options. Many high school students need specialized help in particular subjects, such as Geometry, Chemistry, English or Algebra.
High schools arrange for tutors to be available on given days for tutoring and homework help.
Some students need only periodic and minimal help, while others require consistent individualized attention. Other needs of students include PSAT and SAT prep classes, study skills, and homework help. Additionally, special interest clubs such as photography, environmental action, computers and desktop publishing may be offered according to the goals and the needs of participating students. Public school districts may be the sponsor and host for the after-school hours program. However, other organizations and schools may run programs as well.
