The Fishing School (TFS) is a nationally-recognized youth development organization. We provide children and families with academic and parental support through two community-based centers located in Wards 6 and 7 in Washington, DC. The philosophy of The Fishing School is inspired by the adage, “If you give a man a fish, you will feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will feed himself for a lifetime.” Since 1990, our academic after school and summer programs have helped over 2,500 students to fish in the rivers of their minds.
We believe that education is the foundation for success. TFS‘s community-supported programming helps students achieve academic success and improve their performance in school by providing them with supplemental academic instruction, targeted tutoring, homework assistance, test preparation, life skills training, recreation and cultural enrichment.  |
