WHAP's Safe House
After-School “Safe-House” Tutorial Program and Children's Computer Classes
Our after-school tutorial program serves students in grades Kindergarten through high school. It emphasizes work with children who are one or more grade levels behind, in two or more subject areas. It is offered Monday-Thursday (except holidays) from 3:30 p.m-6:00 p.m. in WHAP’s computer center. The tutors are very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and friendly who are willing to help students successfully complete homework assignments.
A light nutritious and delicious snack is served. Sanitary safety measures are enforced. Within the tutorial program, WHAP offers Children's Computer Classes. Students use interactive computer media (including games), and software-driven curriculum which minimizes the need for hands-on instruction and offers youth recreational and educational alternatives to unproductive and destructive behavior.
The purpose of WHAP’s Safe House is to help develop the confidence, self-esteem, and identity of its participants.
