| Welcome to Inner Strength! | ||||
|
The Inner Strength program is one of the most competitive youth development programs in Georgia. We expect and demand that our youth have the same high level of success in their academic studies. Inner Strength's basketball teams achieved a high level of success in 2006. The Inner Strength's Academic program includes individual and group tutoring, homework assistance, literacy improvement, and SAT prep courses for older participants. We work with professional and college tutors to assist our students in succeeding academically. Not only do we strive for grade improvement but to develop study skills within our participants to last them a lifetime. Youth are required to receive academic assistance if they are working below grade level or have failing course grades. In instances where youth are working below two or more grade levels, academic assessments are administered to design an appropriate, individualized educational plan. For those youth who achieve at or above grade level are encouraged to assist others through a cooperative learning/mentoring experience. This teaching strategy develops a sense of camaraderie among youth, as well as leadership skills, and teaches the value of giving back to the organization and the community. Inner Strength also acts as an advocate for each participant in their school by meeting with teachers, and counselors. We follow and track the students academic performance each year, through either weekly reports or scheduled progress reports from the school. |
