ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT

We improve academic performance in Math & ELA through our assessment-based tutoring program using a system of personalized learning and success planning with diagnostic-driven, direct instruction individualized for every learner.  

PERSONAL ENRICHMENT

The Learnatory offers over 30 STEAM enrichment classes throughout the year and in our summer camps.  This gives young people the opportunities to explore and discover areas of interest in the 4th Industrial Revolution's high-demand fields.

SUCCESS DEVELOPMENT

Our success development program, "Envision Success:  Dare To Dream!" optimizes personal well-being using a scientifically-based, data-driven approach aiding in each person's growth and success.   The highly interactive and engaging programming teaches how to live a happy, fulfilling life by developing skills and habits that breed success throughout one's life.

FINANCIAL EDUCATION, GROWTH, AND MANAGEMENT

A significant component of our STEAM Programs and camps is Financial Education, Growth, and Management.  We realize children are growing up in an increasingly complex world where they will eventually need to take charge of their own financial future.  We offer several activities that focus on building a solid foundation and developing a wealth-building mindset.

AFRICAN-AMERICAN HISTORY & CULTURAL EDUCATION

In the majority of African-American communities, high-quality education and developmental opportunities are non-existent.  Although it is known that the elements are critical for Black people to be instrumental in the creation of jobs and new industries, there is still a significant lag in Black people overcoming income and social gaps, as well as other critical challenges. Black people must take full responsibility for educating, preparing, and empowering Black youth to succeed in today's tech economy.  The Learnatory offers programming to address that issue.

STEAM SUMMER CAMPS

Our STEAM Summer Camps are known for being the perfect blend of academic development, personal enrichment, and recreational fun!  Our camps encourage and reinforce skills that breed success and emphasize African-American culture.
