San José is aware of the many dangers facing our students at the end of the school day. Gangs, drugs, and lack of supervision are real and present worries that parents face daily while they are away at work.

After school programs such as San José’s homework centers provide safe, academically focused environments where San José's youth can receive individual and group tutoring, complete homework assignments and special projects, and increase their use of computer technology.  San José’s homework centers provide the means and conditions to continually connect students to school and improve their academic achievement and success.

Homework centers are a part of an annual grant program available to schools and non-profit organizations to assist in the operation of before and after school educational programs for San Jose students.  Homework Centers and recreational centers for before and after school programs serve 11,000 students are located in 220 sites including sites at 14 City libraries.
