Education Enrichment Program
The Education Enrichment Program provides free academic support to students in grades 7–12 across Baxter and Marion counties, Arkansas. Whether a student is struggling with algebra, falling behind in reading, or working to recover credits needed to graduate on time, our after-school tutoring and GED preparation classes meet them where they are. This program is open to any student in our service area, not just youth referred through the courts or schools. If a child needs academic help, we're here.
