Held daily and because homework does not always occur at home and with the perceived demand for higher academic performance, this after-school homework-assistance program serves as a mediated protective function for children at-risk for school failure, particularly for those who do not have structured after-school activities or those whose parents/guardians have limited English proficiency. All subject matter is addressed and support and supplies are provided for assignments, projects, etc. During the 2013-2014 year, Lakeside’s Coordinator decided to hire Student Aides whom are currently enrolled in High School. The purpose was to have staff closer to the ages of the participant not only in an effort to build a lasting rapport, but to mentor/give advice as to what they are currently experiencing at the high school level (e.g., academic rigor) in an effort to better prepare them for what is expected/required from them in their up-and-coming-future grades.
