Making Strides in School - Isaac's Story

4/15/2015

 
Picture
Isaac's mother came to UCM's Creekside Community Center to inquire about their tutoring program. She had received her son's report card and he had performed poorly in five subjects. Because of her hectic work and school schedule, she was struggling to find time to help Isaac with his homework. She was very excited for him to begin the program and made sure that he consistently attended his tutoring sessions. Isaac was placed in the first grade group, where his tutor began providing him with individualized support tailored to address his academic weaknesses. 

Thanks to the help he has received at Creekside, Isaac is doing much better with his assignments and has improved in all of the subjects that he was struggling in. He continues to work hard towards further improvement. 

The tutoring program at Creekside Community Center is a collaboration between UCM and the Fairfax County Homelessness Liaison's Office. Fairfax County Public School teachers volunteer their time to tutor school-aged children who are struggling in school.
