  • When the school year first started I thought my teacher was tough on me, so I used to go home and tell my mom a story everyday. She will call my teacher and they would talk all the time. It wan't until after my visit that I realized my teacher and my mom were only trying to make sure I always did my best! Thank you Mrs. McBride and and the Home Works program. My family and I appreciate all you have done this year."

    — HW Student

  • We love the HW program. It's so good to see the teacher outside of the school environment. They involve the student in the visit and ask their opinion on how they're feeling and how school Is working for them. It's not just about how the student can set academic goals, they also work on life skills. The highlight was when she opened the "goodie bag" and received fun games to help with math and reading.

    —Hannah Cole Primary Student Family Member

  • In the summer of 2012, our school partnered with Home Works and fully embraced its mission. Through initiatives like Family Learning Workshops, Family Dinners, and Home Visits, we were able to deepen our connection with families. The results spoke for themselves - student attendance, academic performance, and parent involvement all improved significantly. Even now, in 2025, the saying holds true: it takes a village to raise a child. Home Works is a vital part of that village, offering support, training, and essential resources to both educators and families.
