Educational Enrichment is responsible for a variety of projects to improve student learning, provide enrichment activities for children, expand family involvement in the schools, and support professional development opportunities for teachers. This department also oversees implementation of the federal "No Child Left Behind" law within FUSD. Some of the projects Educational Enrichment manages include:
- CLIP, the Collaborative Literacy Intervention Project, is the most effective program we've found to support beginning readers!
- Read Right is a unique,perhaps even radical, approach to teaching reading to stuggling students in middle and High school. This method, based on brain research, now serves students at Flagstaff Middle School, Mt Elden Middle School, New Start, and Coconino High School. See our Powerpoint slide for more information.
- Learn more about the district's Kindergarten services and our philosophy of early childhood education.
- Our HomeStart program provides extra services for children and youth whose families are living in temporary, inadequate or substandard housing.
- FACTS or "Family and Community Teaming for Students" is our out-of-school time program providing extra support for academic success and a wide variety of enrichment and recreation activities to broaden students experiences.
- Family Resource Center Located at 1806 East Route 66 in Flagstaff, provides information for families and schools in the district, referrals to schools and local agencies for needed services, parenting workshops, free homework assistance, and access to computers and the internet. The FRC also offers books and videos for parents as well as books and learning games for children that can be checked out on a short-term loan basis. Call (928) 774-1103 for more information.
