Description:
The Memphis Ambassadors Apprentice Program (MAAP) is a year-round program dedicated to help our underperforming (students with low GPAs) students. The program serves as an educational component, under the Memphis Ambassadors Program to support 7th and 8th grade. Our mission is to raise their GPA and prioritize working on foundational skills and core concepts/standards.
Our sites meet three times a week for an hour and a half after school in partnered schools. We focus on Math, ELA, Science, and Life skills. We also offer virtual intervention calls in the evenings for participants to receive additional help with homework, projects, classwork, or any other needs.
Parents are required to attend monthly parent meetings that detail the month's requirements and program updates. Participants will be required to complete community service. Participants can receive a monthly stipend as an incentive based on their attendance and participation.
During the summer, we host a Summer Leadership Academy for our incoming 8th grade participants. Summer Leadership Academy is 3-weeks of academic enrichment and life-skills, such as, financial literacy, conflict resolution, bullying prevention, and so much more. This provides students an opportunity to retain information they have learned during the school year and decreases the risk of summer slide or summer learning loss.
