LEAP wishes you peace, love, and light! Chag Sameach!
LEAPers, We would like to wish you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving! We are very thankful for each of you!
Thank you Montessori School of Englewood for partnering with us for the Language Through Science program! It has been a pleasure experiencing the preschool classrooms of TMOSE engaging with the language of science.
On behalf of our teammates at LEAP, happy National Women's month! "The success of a woman should be the inspiration to another. We should raise each other up. Make sure you're very courageous: be strong, be extremely kind, and above all be humble." -Serena Williams
On April 10th, Join LEAP for an exciting volunteer opportunity with Project Vision! Thirty high-schoolers in the past several weeks have been participating in LEAP's Language Through the Workforce program. Email [email protected] for details.
At LEAP, we had the pleasure to work with The Montessori School of Englewood! We continue to provide Language through Science workshops to their dynamic staff.
LEAP will be working with Richards Career Academy through our Language for Scholars program! 23 students are eager to learn during this 10 week course. Interested in volunteering? Please reach out to [email protected] for more information!
Spread a little love today! Happy Valentine's Day from LEAP.
"Where we are met with cynicism and doubts and those who tell us that we can't, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up a spirit of a people: Yes, we can." -Barack Obama Happy Black History month from LEAP!
We love science! LEAP has partnered with @TMSOE to provide a 10- week Language Through Science professional development program. The LTS program will provide teachers with additional skills and techniques that make learning about science an adventure for preschoolers.
Dare to Dreaam! A part of the Learning for Scholars program, this encouraged individuals emerging adulthood to show off their employment skills, as well as build upon them. Additionally, this class fine tuned their speech skills which is valuable for future employment.
Happy New Year from LEAP! Enjoy the holiday with the people you love most. Here's to 2021!
Happy Kwanzaa from LEAP! Have a wonderful, safe holiday with family and friends. Enjoy!
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! Everyone have a wonderful, safe holiday with family. -LEAP
Happy Hanukkah from LEAP! Enjoy a wonderful, safe holiday with family and friends. Mazel tov!
Since the beginning of March, LEAP has continued providing virtual services to students from under-resourced communities. Any consideration in contributing to our 2020 Annual Appeal Fund to keep services going would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all! leapempowers.org/donate-to-leap/
As you may know, today is Giving Tuesday. Coming into 2021, we want to start off strong to continue serving our students. Any contribution is greatly appreciated. We are thankful for you! leapempowers.org/donate-to-leap/
