ATLANTA – West Manor Elementary kicked off its eCampus learning initiative with the Atlanta-Fulton Public Library System on Monday. ECampus is the library’s online learning suite of tutoring, test preparation and educational resources for all ages.
Mrs. Juree Hall, administrative coordinator and Mrs. Tisa Jackson, child services manager gave a presentation on the program to students, and began the process of registering to register every West Manor student for a library card. The registration number on the card will provide students and their parents with access to the library’s eCampus resources.
West Manor plans to use the SkillsTutor, Tutor.com and ePrep aspects of eCampus for grades K-5 core subjects and writing. The eCampus program will allow for access to both enrichment and remediation activities, with the added bonus of an online tutor assisting the student in real time.
“With 100 percent of our students registering for library cards from the Atlanta-Fulton Public Library System, the eCampus program will enhance our efforts to remediate and accelerate our students and provide access for parents to monitor and work with their child outside of the classroom,” said West Manor Elementary Interim Principal Dr. Reginald Lawrence.
