Academics was founded in 2003 to offer tutoring services to students who consistently underperformed on standardized tests. In 2008 we began offering during-school-day small group instructional support to students in grades 1-12. "S.T.E.P." tutors are state-credentialed professional educators. Moderate to low-performing students benefit from small group, data-driven, and differentiated instruction. It has been proven that this instructional model has increased the academic performance and confidence of low-performing students. In addition, S.T.E.P. has incorporated the study of performing arts as a means of refining student exposure to various kinds of literature through the study of acting, the study of vocal music, and broad dance styles. Performing Arts classes are taught by professionally trained and experienced performing artists. Students are fully engaged in the learning process as they participate in both online tutoring and in-person performing arts instruction. S.T.E.P. Academics provides academic support and performing arts instruction to students whose families come from low-to-moderate income levels. The disciplined study of performing arts adds tremendous value to reading, articulation, diversity, and tolerance. Academic tutoring is done by state-certified educators in the core subjects of Math and Reading for students in Grades 1 -12. During the fiscal year, S.T.E.P. Provided Performing arts instruction to over 20 students free of charge to low-income K-8 students and Academic support/tutoring services to 10 students free of charge to low-income 1-12 students. 78615 78615 78615 Lauren Fofana Founder and Executive Director 40.00 13468 0 0 Yvonne McFall Artistic Director 0.5 0 0 0 Patricia Diggs Recording Secretary 0.5 0 0 0 Simeon Woods Chief Financial Officer 0.5 0 0 0 Rene Holden Academic Director 0.5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 GA Lauren Fofana 4426 HUGH HOWELL ROAD SUITE B 343 TUCKER GA 30084 6784719894 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 63330 35890 8850 20000 70531 198601 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 63330 35890 8850 20000 70531 198601 198601 0 0 0 0 0 0 198601 0 1 1 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Insurance;395|Office Expense;2871|Advertising;86|Online processing fees;143|Supplies;1021|Misc exp;327^Total;4843^ There was a delay in getting the financials completed on time.
