5) Why the name "HomeLink"?
The Program links academics to the students at home. It operates as a "college model" -- students to come to a class for one period per week, then study for that class at home, then return the following week to review their work and move to the next lesson in the class. This model is similar to what college students would experience. Each class period is scheduled for 1 hour.
