Child Safety at the Boston Tutoring Program

At the Boston Tutoring Program, the safety and well-being of every child in our care is our highest priority. We are committed to creating a secure, supportive, and nurturing environment where students can learn, grow, and thrive.

To ensure the safety of all participants, we have implemented the following measures:

• Supervised Environment: All tutoring sessions and enrichment activities are conducted under the direct supervision of qualified staff, including our Education Specialist and Academic Support Specialist, as well as trained volunteers.

• Background Checks: All staff members and volunteers undergo comprehensive background checks before working with children to ensure a safe and trustworthy environment.

• Secure Facility: Our program is held at the former North Boston School Library, a safe and monitored location with controlled access during program hours.

• Emergency Preparedness: Staff members are trained in basic first aid and emergency procedures, ensuring they are prepared to respond effectively to any situation.

• Transportation Safety: In partnership with Thomas County Schools, we provide reliable and safe transportation for students attending our program, adhering to all transportation safety protocols.

• Parental Communication: We maintain open lines of communication with parents and guardians to keep them informed of their child’s progress, behavior, and any concerns that may arise.

By prioritizing these safety standards, the Boston Tutoring Program ensures that every child can engage in educational and enrichment activities with confidence, knowing they are protected and valued.
