Education Tutoring Tutoring in academic subjects and help with homework is provided by Education Director, Alida Thompson , in the Stergios Learning Center Monday through Thursday when school is in session. Members may drop in any time for assistance with school work and are encouraged to complete their homework prior to participation in other club activities. Parents may request to have their child's name checked off daily to verify attendance. The Ultimate Journey motivates young people to develop an understanding of and sensitivity to the environment, helping them build the knowledge and motivation to protect our natural resources. Participants utilize such scientific tools as a computer interfaced microscope and refracting telescope to explore the world around them at scales not ordinarily visible.
Members learn good sportsmanship and are given ample opportunity to interact socially.
Specialty Programs Field trips and other special events round out our programming. Members participate in local and regional contests with youths from other areas, visit senior citizens' homes, attend first-run movies, and take part in special classes like cooking, first aid, and yoga. We also offer speical services such as free dental examinations to our members. Smart Girls Studies show that as girls enter adolescence, many of them suffer a loss of self-esteem. Young women begin to notice that they are often judged by their physical appearance rather than strength of character or personal accomplishments.
