Students must eventually be prepared for the structure and academic rigor of high school and college that demand efficient organization skills. Through weekly meetings, students will be introduced to effective and efficient organizational skills to help them become a more successful student.

Through each meeting students will develop and improve their note taking skills.

Enrichment and Book Club

A book club can also be referred to as a reading group. This collection of readers participates in regular discussions of books and other texts that are age appropriate. Students read the books independently at home and then participate in weekly meetings that consist of several members that are similar in age. Specific questions guide students to improve their comprehension skills while actively participating in group discussions. Students have opportunities to share the opinions and insights as well as listen to other perspectives from members of book club. Students also improve their social skills through their interactions with peers and learn to speak more eloquently.
