What do we offer?
What is the Summer Enrichment Program?
Heart for Education offers the MASTER Academy summer enrichment program for students in grades TK-8. Focusing on inquiry and differentiation, we work with schools and districts to organize custom academic curricula to meet the needs of students through Math, Arts/Athletics, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Reading (hence the acronym MASTER). We hire credentialed teachers within the school or district in order to develop a community partnership. For the most recent summer offerings, click here.
What is the After School Homework Assistance & Enrichment?
Heart for Education runs after school homework assistance and enrichment programs that benefit both students who are struggling as well as students who have excellent grades. Often, a neutral homework coach can ease the homework tension between parents and children. This is provided in a safe, nurturing atmosphere that aids students in getting homework done, studying for tests, and doing both assigned and for enjoyment reading. Homework helpers are also available to talk to parents about academic areas that can benefit from more practice as well as what is going well for their student. Students are taught how to learn and gain knowledge often solving their own questions they came to ask.
Heart for Education currently offers the following:
Homework Helpers Heroes:
- Help with students’ homework from remote classroom assignments
- Provide online support with a group of no more than 10 students by grade level
