College and Career Readiness
Intentional tutoring, life skills training, mentoring, career planning, and community service are among a few of the pillars in our College & Career Readiness program. We have a specific focus on leadership, empowerment, financial literacy, public speaking, health & wellness, and fostering teamwork. We provide exposure to colleges through tours, events, and assistance in finding scholarship opportunities. This program is open to both middle and high school students.
Urban Arts Institute, Teen Entrepreneurship Incubator
To meet the creative and entrepreneurial needs of our middle and high school participants, we’ve created the Urban Arts Institute to provide a unique space to jump start, learn, and demonstrate their art through graphic design, screen printing, apparel design, music, DJ training, photography, podcasting, dance and more!
Stay Ahead Tutoring & Homework Support
Our Stay Ahead Tutoring program was born out of a partnership with the Kentucky Department of Education. We were able to design a program to meet each child precisely where they were on their learning journey. By providing a personalized approach that focuses on the needs of each child, we’re able to help them build and improve their academic future. Using assessments, and targeted lessons, students have found amazing results! This approach has helped our students to find ownership in their learning, allowed them to be resilient, developing grit and a growth mindset. We’ve seen percentile gains of 12-14.6% in our 3rd and 4th grade reading groups and our 5th grade math group gaining an average percentile gain of 27%!
Reading Rockets Summer Programming
Reading Rockets is an evidence and literacy-based Summer Camp that is held over a six-week period during June – July. Pursuing QUALITY over QUANTITY, we can hire local education majors, from local universities, to be our camp interns. Seeing between 40-60 students daily, we individually assess each of them for their learning needs and then provide tutors from our Stay Ahead Tutoring program to come into our camp site and work 1:1 with our youth. With our smaller numbers, and quality staff, we can break our youth into three age groups. This way we can design classroom lessons, field trips and activities targeted at their age. Our most recent end-of-camp survey revealed that the most important thing each youth, and family, came away with was: a sense of belonging, and a found community where their children felt seen, loved, and supported!
The program provides the following activities Monday through Friday
Over the past six years, St. George’s Community Center has served over 450 students during the summer months. In fact, during our time as a Freedom School site, we were twice ranked in the top five of 153 Freedom School sites across the United States!
