Extracurricular Programming: Learning Together

One of the best parts of our sister school, Pacific Preparatory’s, online 1:1 education model is that we end up working with amazing students from across the globe; we have students in the midwest, out east, all up the west coast, and many living abroad. But, one thing brings them all together: a love of learning.

As we at Tutor Corps and PacPrep very well know, the benefits of 1:1 education are countless: customized learning plans, individualized attention, and access to world-class educators and mentors. But, as many families ask us, what about socialization with their peers?

Growing Together

Often, we work closely with families to suggest additional local resources, classes, and activities so that their children can connect with peers in their community. But, we also wanted to find ways for students to tap into what we already have: a robust community of learners with unique perspectives on the world. As such, this past year, we were proud to launch our extracurricular program, allowing students to connect with peers across the globe. Our students read together, painted together, created together, and grew. During this tough year, it was heartening to see students dig deep and explore their interests, not only in their 1:1 classrooms, but in our group events, as well.

Exploring Together

As we look ahead to the 2021-2022 academic year, we are excited to continue this extracurricular programming with a fun lineup of activities. Starting in September, we will begin our weekly reading circle for our pre-K, kindergarten, and first graders. We will also launch our monthly paint night where our favorite professional artist Susan will lead students through how to create amazing works of art. Then, starting in October, we will launch our grade-specific book clubs, pairing groups of students with expert English teachers who will help them expand their horizons through literature. Stay tuned for more dates and specifics. We look forward to learning with you!
