New Song Learning Partnership
New Song Learning Partnership seeks to help grow students that are able to achieve their full potential.
New Song Learning Partnership (NSLP) is an after-school program focused on academic excellence, life-long learning and character-development for elementary and middle school students. NSLP is unique because it focuses on the needs of the whole child, emphasizing relationships with families, teachers and community members to prepare students for the lifetime of opportunities, challenges and choices they will face.
NSLP includes a Teen Internship program, enabling paid high school students to tutor the younger children, help with recreational activities and receive employment training.
Several organizations, local residents and adult volunteers
enable NSLP to serve the students and families enrolled in the after-school program.
If you are interested in volunteering as a homework helper during weekday afternoons or as a teen mentor on Saturday afternoons, please contact Stephanie Farmer at 212-222-3256.
Summer Time Enrichment Program (STEP)
Students from the community in grades one through eight participate in a month-long program of academic enrichment, recreation, and character building. Teens from the Teen Mentoring program help staff the camp and earn a stipend while receiving valuable job experience and mentoring from adult educators.
