“…leap makes it a lot easier for us working parents.”

Milagros Chiara
Parent
Oak Street Elementary School
“Each year our waiting list grows as parents continue to seek admittance. We hope to expand the program to include more students as our current students have mastered skills in Language Arts, Math, Dance, Cooking, Singing and Piano, just to name a few. Even the leap staff is well organized and demonstrates a sincere concern for the welfare for our students.”

“I recommend all students to come to leap because we have many clubs to participate in. For example the type of clubs we have are sports, cooking, DJ class, chess, woodshop, visual art and more. It’s pretty cool because I get to decide what I want to do and still have fun with my friends doing it.”

“I really enjoyed being apart of leap. I think it kept me on track.I really also liked the events that leap brought to our school. It was open to not only the leap students but to all students apart of our school. When they do things like this, it shows how leap is apart of our community. I don’t know what I would do without leap.”

“Since the initial planning meeting to this very day the the collaborative process has continued and my program becomes more finely tuned with each conversation. The most relieving aspect of this partnership is that leap does not wait for me to contact them to discuss the program. They initiated all communiques throughout the year to make certain that every aspect of the program was running according to my expectations – despite the challenges our campus faced this year.”

“Most of the students I tutored were failing math. They were unmotivated and discouraged because of their lack of knowledge. As a math tutor I was able to foster an environment that allowed the students to learn at their pace. With the help from the leap team and them believing in my vision for the type of tutoring program I wanted to implement, the tutoring program was a rewarding experience for the students as I.”

Ms. Asia

“Before leap both of my children did not express much interest in learning new things. Now, my children look forward to the new, educational and fun activities the program has to offer.”

“I like leap because the program provides children with an equal amount of academic an social skills that helps them thrive inside and outside of the classroom. The invaluable lessons they learn while in leap will benefit them in youth as well as adulthood. leap allows the students I teach to ‘leap’ into a brighter future.”
