L.E.A.A.A.P for SUCCESS Programs:
Delta House provides high quality services to students in grades 6-12 and their families. LEAAP (Learning through Expanded Academics and the Arts Program) for Success after-school programs offers academic tutoring, homework, web-based curriculum for building skills, and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics). Students participate in enrichment classes and workshops that encourage positive intervention/prevention activities to address community issues such as the prevention and awareness of alcohol, bullying, drugs, opioids, and substance abuse; mental health crises; and gambling. These programs are designed to help students improve their social skills; improve school attendance; decrease the number of negative behavior incidences; and lessen the achievement gap.
