This comprehensive program targets academic skill-building and social-emotional learning (SEL), a proven approach that helps youth better comprehend emotions, build positive relationships and demonstrate empathy.

Together, stronger study skills and better emotional health create the foundation for a positive middle school experience.

The middle school program delivers:

• After-school tutoring in literacy and math
• Study skills workshops
• Enrichment opportunities: Cesar Chavez Ravenswood Middle School multimedia center, field trips, and camps
• School-wide events that build positive identity and social skills
• Support for the transition to Menlo-Atherton High School (MAHS): enrollment, course selection, and translation services

Middle school is just the beginning as we help students boldly overcome barriers. See our High School page for more on what happens once students reach 9th grade.
