We accomplish our mission through an after school program and a summer camp. This year, we were able to provide a wide variety of very effective academic interventions! Several of our students were able to receive in-person weekly tutors trained in Ortinglingham! During summer, our students received daily reading instruction, with 94% of students maintaining or improving their reading scores! We were also able to work directly with teachers to ensure homework was being completed as well as understood. We also provided many academic outlets such as STEM projects, robotics, and more! 0 7939 Our students come from a variety of backgrounds, and many are dealing with instability and trauma. We have been able to go above and beyond to fill in the gaps with our kids' emotional growth! Students struggling receive individualized plans to help them thrive at program. We spend time every week focusing on Social and Emotional Learning. Students who are struggling are also able to work one-on-one with staff when needed. This may mean stepping out to talk or color or simply get a hug. We also spend tons of time working on our students' relationships with one another, helping to cultivate healthy friendships that provide a space for our students to be themselves! 0 6000 This year, we have been able to provide for a lot of basic needs that our families have struggled with. Meals and snacks are provided every day as well as food sent home over breaks to help supplement the lack of meals coming from school and LAL. We have also been able to provide things like clothing, and Christmas presents to relieve family needs. But one of the things we are most proud of this year was the relationships we built with our parents. This year, we were able to deepen relationships with parents, providing a space for them to bring us problems they may not have shared with us in the past and giving us the chance to help provide and find solutions, removing stressors for parents and providing stability for our students! 0 7166 21105 Oliva Raugh Chairman 0 0 0 0 Austin Smith Vice Chairman 0 0 0 0 Tamise Cross Board Member 0 0 0 0 Madison Pascascio Board Member 40 24917 0 0 Rachel Pascascio Board Member 40 24917 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Rachel Milkie 5009 e 21st Street Indianapolis IN 46218 3173630794 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 87908 98005 171286 87209 150455 594863 87908 98005 171286 87209 150455 594863 594863 87908 98005 171286 87209 150455 594863 1 1 0 0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Operating Expenses, Insurance, Website, Marketing, Office Supplies, Miscellaneous General and Administrative Expenses, Bank Charges, Event Costs, Staff Training, Auto Insurance, Auto Expenses, Auto - Gas, Admin Services, Building Management and Internet Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 20 Prior period adjustment Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 24 Other Current Assets Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 26 Payroll Tax Liabilities
