The Peer Tutor Program matches High School students (tutors) with middle school and elementary school age youth (tutees) who have demonstrated a need for academic assistance or a need for support in developing successful study habits. The goals of the program are to provide academic assistance with specific problematic subjects and to create a supportive learning environment, which enables the tutees to gain confidence and build self-esteem.

Students helping students can be a very successful and fun way to learn. The end result may be better grades and improved self-esteem for both the tutee and the tutor.

A $45 fee is requested from families/tutees who receive tutoring to cover the cost of materials (waived in the event of financial need; learn more).
