It's co-educational where both genders sit and study together and an inclusive school for all races and ethnicities. Our mission is to help students develop the literary and cultural skills needed to become success students in the U.S. education system. Provide tutoring and mentoring assistance for students in reading, math, and science to help them achieve grade-level proficiency. Help students to achieve proper grade level studies by offering the missed courses and class works in previous school years by filling in lesson gaps found through assessment tests and reviews during tutoring sessions. Provide students love and emotional support to help them feel sense of belonging and to become self-motivated to attain self-esteem through higher school performance, and to solicit the help and commitment of parents to be part of their children MTA offers services to K-12 students in a variety of subjects including math, science, and reading. We often receive students who are way behind their class grade levels. Some are just coming into the country and are placed in a class based only of their age. These students begin school at a dis-advantage and remain under-achievers and often opt out becoming vulnerable to-school to-prison pipeline. MTA works with at-risk students hailing from the immigrant and low-income communities and who are all eligible in getting a reduced lunch. These at-risk students share some common patterns of under-achievement and social mal-adjustment in school, which lead to failure to finish high school because of academic disappointment and a collection of other problems. MTA program is particularly tailored in helping families and students from the immigrant and low-income communities who often do not understand the educational system and norms of United States. These students require intense, targeted, and structured interventions aimed to both prevent occurence of bad behaviors and intercede on newcomer inadequacies to improve the common effects of their at-risk status by instilling in them a sense of belonging in the community, school, as well as in the family. Hence, MTA seeks to create an all-inclusive program that brings parents, the community, and the schools together with MTA's mission. MTA center offer tutoring for a wide variety of subjects including math, science, and reading for a mixed grade students. It also conduct consultations, assessment testing, and one-o-one and small group tutoring sessions, test reviews, and study skills trainings. Each center designs individualized tutoring for every student and therfore gives every student exactly what she/he needs at the tight time to make up missed class woks, fill in the gaps, and to get better performance at school and in their respective grade levels. We are proud to note that our students have shown increased confidence and proficiency in math, science, and reading, and sound social development, self-confidence, and enthusiasm for learning. We've also exceeded our expectations at the end of each year like: * Within 6 weeks of participating our after-school program, the attendance rate of participants increased by 15% and parent survey results indicate a 70% increase of families that have implemented study and reading skills and strategies at home. * In-house assessment and reviews analysis of end of the year reading scores demonstrate that at least 70% of students gained at least one level or higher in reading. * At the end of each school year, 85% of program participants gained a better understanding of math, science, and reading and tested at a grade level or higher and were excited to get into the next grade with enthusiasm. * Expectation is that many students will have the ability to make up the missed lessons and class work, finish school, and not opt out because right help is offered and will have the opportunity to graduate from school and/or go to college and obtain decent job and good living. * Create extracurricular youth development programs to increase the youth's ability to resist the lure of problem behaviors and try to provide a positive influence and settings that offer extracurricular activities such as participation in student government, youth groups, sponsor summer college enrichment programs, essay competitions, and campus visits. The MTA success is due to how seamlessly these program components work together: * We provide tutoring and mentoring to achieve a grade-level proficiency and to fill in lesson gaps through assessment tests and reviews. * We establish Parent Outreach and networking to discuss the country's culture/customs and school system and parent orientations. * We create Youth Programs to help students resist problematic behaviors. 171725 166325 166325 Farrah M Osman Director, Youth Programs 20 0 0 0 Halima M Osman - not related above Public relations Officer 25 0 0 0 Ahmed A Hassan Chair/Executive Officer 40 0 0 0 Warsan W Ilmi Board Member 5 0 0 0 Iqro Timojilic Board Member 5 0 0 0 Nadifo M Warsame Board Member 5 0 0 0 Asha A Absie Board Member 5 0 0 0 Roy Magnuson Board Member/Advisor 10 0 0 0 Faduma A Aden Board Member/Temp.
