Mentoring and Readiness for College (MARC)
The Pre-College academic year offerings provide local youth with weekly tutoring and enrichment opportunities.Through a combination of tutoring, enrichment, and communication, MARC motivates youth to take a proactive role in their own life choices and become engaged members in their community.
- Tutoring: We strive to meet the academic needs of our students by offering help in specific school subjects and by developing more effective study skills.
- Enrichment: Beyond academics, MARC also exposes students to enrichment and recreational opportunities, organizations within the community, and events on local campuses.
- Communication: We work to collaborate closely with parents, teachers, and school administrators.
But most importantly - MARC inspires students to attend college!
