Program Overview

About Our Program

Our program is here to help kids in grades K-12 improve their reading and math skills outside of school. We offer free and low-cost tutoring, summer camps, and family literacy nights. Kids get extra support with reading, math, and even ACT preparation for older students. We also provide GED, test-taking skills, financial literacy, digital literacy, and other forms of support for adults who need extra support.

We also include parents in their child's learning! Parents learn ways to help their kids with reading at home during our special family literacy nights.


Who Can Join?

Our program is open to all kids in the community. If your child needs help with reading or math, we are here to support them!


Where We Are Located

Currently, we meet at the Akron Town Library, which makes it easy for families to join.


Why Join Us?

With fun activities, small group tutoring, and special family events, we make learning exciting and give kids the skills they need to succeed.
