S.E.E.K.: Students Empowering Exceptional Kids
|
Description:
S.E.E.K. is an after-school program that provides services during the school year. Camp S.E.E.K. provides services during the summer.
S.E.E.K. after school and Camp S.E.E.K. are programs led and facilitated
by Junior and High School students under the supervision of Buckner
staff. Area youth from the 79415 community are recruited and trained
as facilitators for the after school and summer camp program.
Our emphasis is to deliver character education training to those
who serve as youth leaders and assist them in facilitating groups
to an audience of students, kindergarten through sixth grade.
Activity stations might include crafts, snacks, games, skits,
and tutoring/mentoring. Youth facilitate activities and teach
life skills. An example of these skills might focus on safety,
cultural awareness and diversity, responsibility, respect, caring,
kindness, and trustworthiness.
Purpose:
The program’s purpose is to provide activities to support the
prevention and reduction of juvenile crime. This program will
provide a safe place for youth.
Target Area:
Youth living in the 79415 zip code or youth that attend the following
elementary schools: Tubbs, Wolffarth, Jackson, McWhorter, and
Cavazos.
S.E.E.K. currently meets at Our Lady of Grace on Mondays and Tuesdays, 3111 Erskine
and Jackson Elementary on Thursdays and Fridays, 201 Vernon
Volunteer opportunities are available
