Merrimack College Program Gives ESL Students Success Skills
Madera Madera is one of thousands of Lawrence High School alumni who have participated in the Accept the Challenge program at Merrimack. The program accepts freshmen and sophomore English-as-a-second-language students, who attend language skills classes two to four days a week after school in Lawrence.
Merrimack students are paired up with Lawrence students to mentor, tutor, and assist them with homework and problem-solving techniques.
The Lawrence students live on Merrimack’s campus for five weeks in the summer, with underclassmen honing their English conversation skills and upperclassmen learning about local history, American literature and politics.
