We have three main components to the After-School & Summer Programs:
- Educational Component - Besides homework help, we have both individual and small group tutoring in math and reading. MYDC uses a research based curriculum, the SRA reading Laboratory and Schoolhouse Math Lab.
SRA Reading Lab is a multi-leveled system of individualized instruction will provide your child with practice in reading comprehension, vocabulary skills, and study skills. The Math Lab can supplement any math program by reinforcing basic concepts and skills. It allows students to learn independently at their own pace.
- Enrichment Component - The focus of this component is to enrich the lives of our students by increasing voluntary participation in various clubs or activities. Involvement in these activities is intended to enhance the skill level and improve knowledge of content. Ultimately, the outcomes are growing self-confidence, self-discipline, and goal setting. Actually, students are able to identify unknown talents, gift, and passions.
- Alternative Activities - Through alternative activities, MYDC After-school expects to decrease the amount of unmonitored and unstructured time by strategically (weekends and evenings) increasing safe, supervised youth centered activities (free of ATOD, violence, etc).
