Davina N.

Parent, Eagles Roar Afterschool Program

One of my favorite things about the afterschool program is how they not only keep me in the loop about what my child's homework is, and how he is doing in class, but the biggest thing I have noticed in my son, is the change in his behavior. They are really teaching him how to be more respectful during the school day.

TESTIMONIALS

Parents Recommend

“The program helps my son better in school by making sure his homework is complete and helping him solve issues he faces everyday. The best part of the program is the tutors. They care for the students and their academics. My son has a better attitude because of the program. Instead of getting upset and giving up, he is more willing to talk it out”
