Focus Areas

  • Education & Youth

Firewall Centers provides daily, school-based tutoring and mentoring services designed to help students achieve academic success, build character, and transform into servant leaders.

  • About Us
    In elementary, many of our students struggle with reading on grade level. Our program provides them with daily homework help and tutoring, character development and social-emotional learning through integrated curricula, and STEAM-related project-based learning that incorporates science experiments, art projects, and more. In middle school, students are provided with daily tutoring, specifically in math and Language Arts, homework help, and character development. In high school, students are provided with tutoring, homework help, and mentoring as well as with the tools, academic support, and resources they require to be competitive after graduation – whether they attend community college, a four-year university, receive military training, enroll in an apprenticeship program, or work towards industry certifications.
  • Our Impact
    Firewall Centers impacts students in many ways. Firewall keeps students safe during after-school hours as well as produces life-changing outcomes in the areas of attendance, behavior, and academics.

Firewall Centers Programs

AmeriCorps Firewall

AmeriCorps Firewall is a tutoring program that operates during after-school hours, and its overarching goal is to improve the educational and behavioral outcomes of students that attend these low-achieving middle and high schools. The program’s innovative approach ensures close monitoring from AmeriCorps Members, called Mentors. As a result, students complete their homework, prepare for exams, and improve their test scores and grades. A point-based incentive system and life skills/character building curriculum also provides students with the socio-emotional support they need to better their behavior and stay motivated, preventing them from falling behind and getting discouraged as often happens to at-risk, lower-performing students.
