Paramount Care Foundation
Our after-school program serves over 100 1st-6th grade students from our local schools in the city of Paramount, and surrounding communities. Paramount is a racially and economically diverse city with schools that were consistently scoring 1's and 2's out of 10 on the API report of standardized schores. The school administration is working diligently to improve test scores in the schools and have referred many children to our program. We meet every Monday through Thursday from 3pm until 5:30pm offering homework help, snack, recreation and enrichment activities for our students.
We strive to offer structured learning in a fun environmnent while simultaneously focusing on self-confidence and motivation through the joy of learning. In addition to helping children academically, we also strive to make a difference in the families of participating children by working with parents in times of crisis.
