I like the LEAPS Program because it's a calm place where I can do my work. I also like it because I can talk with my friends and get their view on hte work I'm doing.

I think the Afterschool Program has influenced my son and motivated him this year to do better in school! Thanks so much for helping him.

The teachers are so helpful, sweet, and active. My grades are so good. This helps me a lot.

I like the Afterschool program because it lasts a long time, walks, and how later by 5:00 you can talk if you have no homework. Also, peer help is SO helpful!

Ms. Demma helped me in English greatly. Mrs. Strong has also helped me make an A on my Geometry quiz.

I wasn't doing all of my homework and turning it in. And now I am turning it in and understanding it.

Afterschool has helped me get caught up on my classes a lot so I don't fail. |
As a result of the Afterschool program I have brought up my grade in Bridge Math and made a better grade on my last test.

I was struggling until I came to the program. I redone a test that I originally made a 41. I got shown how to do it and made a 77. |
I brought my grade up from a C to a B.

Without the Afterschool Program I would not have been able to graduate early. It is great to have at THS. I know GEM will be great for every student if needed. Again thank you to everyone who helped me get through my credit recovery. I could not have done it without Afterschool.

I have gotten the help I needed in Bridge Math to bring my grade up from a 67 to an 89. We get plenty of help in the areas of study we need. There are also plenty of teachers there for assistance. Because of the Afterschool Program I can now graduate early in December.
