It was by teacher invitation at first, and then we opened it up to the whole student body.

Not just from an educational standpoint but also the socialization with friends and developing relationships. They're not picking on each other. It's having a lot of benefits.

We've never done anything like this before. We thought it might help three or four kids, but then it really took off. The word of mouth really spread.

From parents, we get hugs. We've had a lot of comments that homework time has been cut in half.

We now have peer tutors. They're developing relationships with each other.

This is not just something where low kids are attending. We have gifted and average students participating. It's not labeled a 'dummy group.' There's no labeling and everyone works together.
