Ten Times Better

"The Scholar's Creed"

I am here today
Because I want to make my future
TEN TIMES BETTER.
I must first master mathematics,
reading, writing, and speaking skills.
I must always work harder than others.
Life is a competitive sport.
I want to be somebody, someday!

A Learning Revolution

Peer Power is a privately funded enrichment program free to all public school students in grades 6-12 which began in East High School in 2005. t has since grown to include 10 additional Mid-South schools.

Peer Power is based on the principles of the American Free Enterprise System which links work and rewards for the scholars and tutors.
