| Description: |
"I Have a Dream" - San Francisco (IHAD-SF) is partnering with Marshall Elementary School in the heart of San Francisco's Mission District. The goal of IHAD-SF is to provide academic support and extracurricular opportunities so that each "Dreamer" from the fourth grade is able to become a successful individual and reach his or her potential. IHAD-SF will stay with this same group of Dreamers until they graduate from high school. The program will also assist the "Dreamers" financially, academically, and emotionally in making the transition from high school to college. The program allows "Dreamers" to set ambitious goals for themselves and develop the skills to achieve those goals.
The program is designed to:
- Increase and support "Dreamers"' success in school
- Enhance the Dreamer's self esteem and view of the future
- Increase parental support for and involvement in their children's education
- Help the "Dreamers" reach their personal goals.
IHAD after school program tutors provide Dreamers with homework help, lead activities, and supervise in-class and/or recreation time.
Timeframe:
- Mondays through Thursdays from 2:40 P.M. until 6:00 P.M.
- Volunteers come anywhere from one day to all four days in the program week.
- Fieldtrips and special events
