Programs
West Middle School Initiative
 This
initiative is focused on improving student learning at West
Middle
Elementary School, the
only elementary school in Asylum Hill.
Both children and parents must contribute to improve
learning, so this program has several components.
For example, we provide an
After School Academy to
improve reading, homework. wellness.
We meet with parents to encourage them to read with their
children at home, because parents must be involved with their
children’s education to be successful.
Unfortunately, many parents are focused on meeting their
family’s basic needs, and are not spending enough time helping
with their children’s education.
AHCZ staff spends time with parents who need assistance
with a variety of issues such as food, clothing, housing, and
employment. Our
objective is to empower parents to take a leadership role in
determining their children’s future.
