Homework Centers, Even Start Program, Open
By John Zermeño — Wednesday, October 6th, 2010
Assistance is now available to migrant children, students and their parents through the migrant after school homework centers and Even Start Program. The homework centers offer students grades K through 12 the opportunity to do their homework in a place where they can receive help from school staff. Even Start serves the community with English classes for adults and kinder prep classes for preschoolers. These services are offered at Rancho Sespe, César Chávez Memorial Hall, the Colina Vista Apartments in Piru and Sheriff’s North Fillmore Storefront Station. There are also homework centers at both Sespe School and Piru School. The centers are staffed with a teacher, an adult instructional assistant and a student worker. Even Start is staffed with a teacher, pre-school teacher and an adult assistant. These services offered by the Fillmore Unified School District Migrant Program are free to the community.
