GASTON HOPE IN CHRIST TUTORING

We have 5 goals for each student that ultimately lead to cooperation, respect for and sensitivity to others, joint problem-solving & daily success.

 1. They are valued as a person & participate in helpful relationships
2.  They receive God's love and our support each day
3. They improve academic performance, ability, and schoolwork
4. They improve social skills, build character, and achieve personal goals
5. We work together to grow as people.

WHAT WE DO

Gaston Hope in Christ Tutoring is a learning and character-building tutoring program for 3rd- 8th grade students on Tuesday- Thursday afternoons. We offer three 3 1/2 hour sessions from 2:30 pm-6 pm Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. That includes a number of study sessions with tutors, as well as breaks, games, and a snack. 

Each student receives academic support, practice in reading and basic math facts, and encouragement and support from caring staff and volunteers each day. Our goal is to improve academic performance, build character, plan & achieve personal goals. 

Students are either transported by bus (Gardner Park and Holbrook students) or must be dropped off. Students must be picked up by a parent or adult who will talk with staff about the student's day and work. We will provide a mid-session snack. 

We use the www.classdojo.com application to offer student incentives and give families real-time updates on student work & activity. Please let us know about upcoming absences as soon as possible.

 Thanks to Generous Partners and Donors, our programs are free.  

We ask for "What You Can Pay" to help us ($20 is a suggested share of  the $100 our program costs for each student each week)
