Higher Ground Program
The Need
Education working to empower youth who lack skills necessary to maximize their academic potential - Inclusive of the basic public school programming, we will provide after school tutoring assistance to ensure that each child achieves competency in homework assignments, group reading, mathematics, science and civic skills.
Parental support: productive learning environment: financial resources - A growing number of youth live in single parent, female headed households, most of which have challenges in directing their children in a holistic environment. There are many programs in our communities, all attempting to address this concern. However, there are very few comprehensive programs that combine the efforts of neighborhood residents, schools, and churches to stem the tide of academic decay.
