Benefits of an Afterschool Program
There are great benefits to enrolling kids in a high quality afterschool program. As noted by the author of Benefits of an Afterschool Program, these benefits include reducing homework battles at home, providing academic support, and providing a positive social environment.
IQuest has been in existence for over six years and have seen our students grow academically and socially, consistently making the six/nine week Honor Roll at their local schools, and performing well on their STAAR exams. Whether our students stay with us for several hours each day as part of our Mindquest program, or plug into one or more of our academic/enrichment classes or tutoring sessions, we provide weekly support to enable their academic and social growth.

A spotlight on one of our academic classes - Singapore Math
Singapore Math (SMath) is a teaching methodology based on the national mathematics curriculum used for K-6th Grade in Singapore. The SMath curriculum teaches students to learn and master mathematical concepts in greater depth using a three-step learning process: concrete, pictorial, and abstract… Students utilize textbooks that focused on problem solving and heuristic model drawing.
Following the introduction of the curriculum into Singapore's grade schools, the country skyrocketed to the top country in the rankings of all countries for 4th and 8th grade mathematics, based on scores from the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). They continue to be a top Math performing country using SMath.
Ms. Courtney, our Singapore math instructor, has been teaching SMath for over 6 years. Some common sentiments shared by her students include: “I LOVE Math with Ms. Courtney!” and “She’s the best!”
