ACADEMIC ENRICHMENT

By focusing on homework and classroom enrichment, volunteer tutors provide students with the academic help they need succeed in school. Midtown also empowers students to take their education into their own hands by connecting them with scholarship organizations.

CHARACTER EDUCATION

By learning about virtues and good habits, students develop the necessary tools to become better students, sons, brothers, and friends. In the character development class, students discuss and learn how to practically implement virtues such as:
•Respect for women
•Responsibility
•Self-control

INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION

Each student that comes to Midtown is assigned an academic tutor and/or character coach that mentors them the entire school year. With a focus on both academics and character development, time spent each week with the same volunteer over time has proven to be an integral part of the overall improvement of the student.

ATHLETICS WITH A PURPOSE

Midtown values sports as a vital part of the program. Students develop their athletic skills, teamwork, sportsmanship, and friendships through a variety of organized sports.

PARENTS

At Midtown, we believe parents are the primary educators of their children.
From the beginning, open communication and program participation is established with students' parents through several events and activities:

•Parent nights once a semester
•Annual parent conferences
•Special family events
•Conversation and Coffee during program evenings
