Academic Help
Does your student need academic help or tutoring?
The first step in finding help for your student is communicating with their teachers. Teachers are available by phone, e-mail or through ParentSquare.
STUDY CONNECTION
Study Connection is a service of the FWCS Community Programs Department, combining the volunteer power of the community with public education to deliver a cost-effective and efficient tutoring program helping FWCS students. The Study Connection office recruits volunteers to work with FWCS students identified by teachers as needing one-to-one tutoring assistance. Students and tutors meet after school, one day each week for one hour during the school year. Call 260.467.8810 for more information.
PROJECT READS
Through its student program, Project READS matches trained volunteers with students in grades K-3 who are striving to reach grade-level reading goals. For one hour each week during the school year, tutors, who also serve as mentors and role models, work with students either one-to-one or in small groups to improve literacy skills. Academic progress is measured through year-end assessments and in the smiles of proud graduates. For more information, visit Project READS or call 260.423.6447.
