Our Objective
The main objective of College Bound for Kids (CBFK) is to prepare elementary and middle school students for a rigorous high school level College Preparatory Curriculum. Students will be given assistance in reading comprehension, mathematics, explicitly following directions, and the importance of completing homework assignments (extension and reinforcement of lessons taught during the school day). CBFK students gain self-confidence and enthusiastically produce improved quality work.
College Bound for Kids is dedicated to providing assistance and encouraging students to understand and complete assignments in an efficient manner.
CHALLENGING STUDENTS TO BECOME INDEPENDENT LEARNERS THROUGH AFTER SCHOOL AND SUMMER TUTORIAL ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS
After-School Program
College Bound for Kids is an after school homework tutorial program offered to elementary and middle school students to increase student achievement and performance. We offer a unique program due to our 8:1 student/tutor ratios and our consistent interactions with teachers. Every tutor is responsible for working with the same students each day. This helps to strengthen skills, improve grades, and help students become independent learners.
The staff of CBFK looks forward to actively engaging your child in meaningful after school enrichment activities. Research shows that after-school programs serve as an effective means of keeping children safe and supervised while providing personalized academic tutorial assistance. CBFK is a well-organized and safe program that will greatly benefit your child.
