WHAT IS CRLP?
The college readiness and leadership program (CRLP) is a voluntary mentorship program designed to help qualified students improve their skills in: *Social Networking *Academics *Extracurricular Activities *Personal Development We believe that students within a collaborative and cooperative environment will excel at academics while reaching their full intellectual, mental, physical and emotional potential. CRLP is a committed long term interactive mentor-mentee relationship which will enhance the student’s probability of acceptance into top ranking colleges and universities around the Nation. In this program we offer the students:
1. Weekly programs (Math, SAT vocabulary, Character Education, Language learning, School grades tracking): We do not charge for the weekly programs and the mentors run them as volunteers. Not attending weekly programs causes a dismissal from the program.
2. Camps & Overnight programs: Camps are one of the mandatory activities in CRLP program and also a good opportunity to socialize and improve leadership skills with peers together. A CRLP student has to attend all the camps and other overnight programs and benefit from them academically and socially.
3. Leadership seminars: We invite VIP people who are successful in their areas and introduce the CRLP students different job and major opportunities for their future lives.
4. College trips: We want the CRLP students to see the real college life by visiting the best colleges & universities in the USA. They also come together with the current students or grads to receive information about those colleges.
5. International trips: This is the most exciting and once in a life activity in the CRLP program. These trips and camps are optional and require additional payments. So far, as a part of these activities we visited a lot of different Europe cities. You will get more information from the CRLP coordinator as the arrangements are done.
6. Home visits and parent & student invitations: We believe that one of the most important component of a successful education life is to establish strong communication between teachers, parents and students. For this reason we will visit you at your home if you are available, otherwise we will invite you to share information about the student’s progress. You can see all the dates for the activities and home visits & invitations in the yearly schedule.
7. Fun days and award ceremonies: In order to make the CRLP program more colorful, we will go to different activities like bowling, soccer, laser tag, picnics, etc. We will also come together with parents and students in CRLP award ceremonies. You can also see the dates for these activities in the yearly schedule as well.
