Teach in the School Year Program - Help middle school student develop a love of learning and the skills necessary to earn admission to selective high schools!
School Year Program teachers work on a volunteer basis instructing at least one class, assisting students with school assignments and projects, and supporting the overall program during special trips and workshops. The School Year Program includes eight-week sessions in the fall and spring, and students attend two times per week in addition to several Saturday sessions.
Teachers are encouraged to volunteer for both semesters during the school year, but one semester is acceptable. Teachers may teach one day per week or two.
