CONNECT WITH DEEP
The One-on-One Tutorial Program:
Each student in the program is assigned one tutor to work with throughout the year. The student and tutor meet for 90 minutes a week from November until the end of April.
During these sessions the tutors are responsible for helping the students with their homework, studying and essays. They are to help with–but not do–the students’ homework, and then push the students ahead of where they are in class (if possible).
Upon registering for this program, our tutoring students are required to complete 15 hours of community service on top of their weekly sessions. Each time a student attends a session with their tutor, they will earn points. For extra points in a session, students are allowed to write creative entries on an outside school book and keep them in their DEEP notebooks. Once a student has earned 50 tutoring points and completes their community service requirement they will earn a scholarship to one of our offered summer camps.
Our tutoring program is for Dorchester residents. Interested students from other towns will be put on a waiting list unless we have available tutors. You MUST be a member of the LHCC to be involved with Project DEEP. Contact a LHCC staff member prior to DEEP registration for more information.
