Allencrest Academic Learning Center

The Allencrest Academic Learning Center is an after school tutoring center located in the Allencrest Apartment Complex in Leominster. Our mission is to "Break the Cycle of Poverty" by providing a safe supportive place for youth that live at Allencrest to receive academic and technology help after school.

Description:
The Allencrest Academic Learning Center is a partnership between the Leominster Public Schools and the Leominster Housing Authority. It was established ten years ago and services students that live in the Allencrest Low-income housing complex using one of the vacant apartment buildings. Students in grades K-12 receive afterschool tutoring Monday - Thursday from 2:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. The center is supported through various grants and mostly with volunteers from school and community.

History:
The Leominster Public School has students from the high school, Sky View Middle School and Southeast elementary school attending the center. This partnership was developed with the Leominster Housing Authority to help serve students that at Allencrest. Both the school department and the housing authority are well established in Leominster.
