GRANT SPOTLIGHT:
THE TUTORING CENTER
The Tutoring Center at the Falmouth High School was one of the many recipients in our Fall 2018 round of grant awards. The Tutoring Center is a place where all students in grades 9 through 12 can go and get academic support from teachers and student tutors. Tutoring Center Coordinator, Suzy Gifford, reached out to FEF to request equipment for the students whose learning is impacted by anxiety and ADHD.
Since every student deserves opportunities to get help to learn and succeed, the Tutoring Center strives to empower all students to succeed academically by providing them with appropriate supports when needed from helpful and qualified educators and student tutors.
FEF is pleased to fund Ms. Gifford's request and help students be able to focus more on their school work and be successful in their efforts. It's great to see grants of all sizes making an impact on our children's learning!
"I AM WRITING TO EXPRESS OUR SINCERE THANKS FOR FUNDING OUR GRANT REQUEST TO THE TUTORING CENTER. OUR STUDENTS LOVE OUR NEW EQUIPMENT TO HELP WITH ADHD AND ANXIETY. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL STUDENTS FOR WHOM THIS HAS BEEN A GREAT ASSET TO THEIR EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCE, ESPECIALLY AS WE ARE NOW IN TO MIDTERM WEEK, WHICH IS A STRESSFUL TIME OF YEAR...
...Your gift has helped some of our students stay seated, calm, and reduced their need for frequent breaks, which has enabled them to persevere through some challenging academic material. We are so grateful that FEF exists and was responsive to our request. Your gift helps our students feel valued because there is an organization that cares about their needs and learning. Thank you, FEF!! "
- Suzy Gifford, RTI Teacher/Tutoring Center Coordinator
