Alpine Achievers Initiative
 
 
 
All programs are in direct service with youth. AmeriCorps members are encouraged to connect with and support students both academically and socially/emotionally with the help of their program manager and site supervisor. Members are required to meet with program managers a minimum of once per month and site supervisors a minimum of once per week to ensure success within their site. Academic Interventions: Academic intervention is the opportunity for students who are not proficient in a subject to receive additional support outside of class time. Primary responsibilities of AmeriCorps members doing academic intervention include 1:1 tutoring of students in areas such as math or reading under the supervision of their site supervisor and/or small group instruction of 3-5 students in a classroom setting. Members will become versed in behavior management skills with an intended goal of building authentic relationships and confidence with students who are below learning targets in academics. Members will have daily contact with students and staff in a number of professional capacities and are encouraged to support outside of the classroom in extracurricular capacities as well. Out-of-School Programming: Out-of-school time (OST) is a supervised program that youth attend when school is not in session. Primary responsibilities of AmeriCorps members serving in out-of- school programming include facilitating an array of activities both in and out of doors. Other responsibilities include homework help and light academic support as directed by their site supervisor. Members will become versed in behavior management and group facilitation of students elementary to high school age with an intended goal of building relationships and confidence in the youth they are serving. AmeriCorps members are expected through support to help improve personal and social skills with the youth they are serving.
