After‑school center at 1255 Robin Street offers K‑12 tutoring and daily meals, staff says
Summary
Staff members at the Academic Support and Community Service Center said the West Side program provides K‑12 tutoring staffed by licensed CCSD teachers, serves a daily meal through a partnership with Three Square, and operates regular afternoon tutoring hours.
A staff member at the Academic Support and Community Service Center on the West side said the program provides K‑12 tutoring by licensed CCSD teachers and serves a daily meal, according to remarks in the meeting transcript.
The program, located at 1255 Robin Street, is an after‑school tutoring and community service center that the speaker described as serving students from elementary through high school. The staff member said the center is “the only 1 of its kind within CCSD that reach all of our kids from the elementary, middle school, and high school level” and that licensed CCSD teachers come after school to tutor students.
The staff member described the center’s schedule and services but gave two statements about operating times: first, “We’re open every day,” and later specifying that “we start tutoring from 02:30 to 05:30, Monday through Friday. That’s our hours this year.” The transcript records both statements; the center’s exact daily operating hours beyond the Monday‑Friday tutoring window were not specified.
Staff also said the center provides a meal each day before students leave, crediting an “amazing partnership with 3 square” for that service. In the transcript the speaker described the space as a place that supports the whole family unit and encouraged families to use the service.
Students who spoke in the recorded remarks described academic benefits. One student said, “As soon as I came here in tutoring, I started to understand more and more about chemistry in both math. It benefited me so much that it changed my grades. So I definitely recommend it.” Another student urged peers to attend, saying the center helps with “history, math, reading, or, like, even writing an essay,” and calling it “so good with, like, just helping with anything.”
The staff member closed by describing the environment as welcoming and encouraging outreach: “It’s a great learning environment and, please feel free to reach out to us.” The transcript did not specify contact details beyond the center’s street address.
No formal actions, votes, or requests for board direction were recorded in the provided transcript excerpt.
