About
The education program provides academic intervention in schools and in the community through college preparation, employment services, technology, high school equivalency preparation classes, and job skills training. The program services approximately 6,800 students. In the 2017-2018 academic year, nearly 1,000 students graduated from our college access programs, nearly 700 were accepted into college. Education programs include the following: 1) After-school programs: A program which enables young students to be better prepared to meet the challenges of the future. Through the after-school program, East Side House Settlement implements comprehensive services in a safe environment that emphasizes educational prosperity and academic success as a means to eventual economic independence. 2) Summer day camp: This program provides students with the opportunity to attend a combined academic and recreational summer day camp. Enrolled students are provided with more learning time in an environment that is predicated on high expectations, supportive relationships and opportunities to expand the students' minds. The program targets students in grades 1-5 and focuses on providing a positive social and academic experience at a critical development state. We strive to help students see the connections between academic disciplines as they move into departmentalized instruction. 3) Youth and adult education (YAES) classes: This program provides basic education and career education to students ages 17-24 in an effort to combat the low literacy rate in the community, assist community members in obtaining an HSE diploma, and gain access to college. YAES successfully assists individuals in their social and academic growth. The YAES program places a particular focus on disconnected youth. 4) High school programs: In fiscal year 2017-2018, ESH had partnerships with 12 New York City Department of Education high schools which offers students a range of services, including: attendance improvement / drop-out prevention, college and postsecondary readiness classes, college and post-secondary exploration, internship placements, enrichment activities, advisory support, and assistance in applying for and gaining acceptance into college and other post-secondary options. 5) Post-secondary pathways program: In 2017, ESH began providing select students in our high school programs with skills training in the health and technology sectors. 150-200 students per year engage in skills training that lead to certification and job placement. 6) Social services: The focus of East Side House Settlement is education for adults and children. The social services program helps remove the obstacles that interfere with the development and progression of ESH participants.
