Homework Help:
Phiotas only do Homework in Chelsea By:Peter Rojas Homework Help is a Chelsea Community Schools initiative designed to support the academic performance of middle school students who attend the Chelsea Public Schools . The brothers of Phi Iota Alpha actively recruit tutors from Boston University and other local universities. During the spring semester of 2006, the brothers of the Nu Chapter had serious talks with the City of Chelsea, MA to jump start a tutoring program for middle school students. That following September, the program started its inaugural semester. After three years, Homework Help now has two program options: Mates and Walk-In. The mates program pairs students with personal tutors for the time of the program and Walk-In is for students that want help on a needs-basis. In addition, the brothers and tutors help the students engage in various enrichment programs including improvisation and physical activities. Every semester ends with a Family Day, where families come together to the Boston University campus to celebrate the ending of the tutoring semester. 6

Tutors give their students personalized certificates displaying the students accomplishments achieved during the semester and the students get to enjoy the state of the art FitRec gym at Boston University. The brothers also help cater this event with bringing food and beverage. The Nu Chapter brothers of Phi Iota Alpha look forward to the upcoming semester to make this the best year yet for Homework Help!
