Milford-based math tutoring service Room 17 is the city’s newest nonprofit.
The organization, run by elementary mathematics professor Monica Cavender and elementary mathematics coach and part-time mathematics professor Sara Kaminski, offers private math virtual tutoring sessions, homeschool support and runs a virtual summer math camp.
The organization has partnered with the city’s Recreation Department on outdoor activities for children that used mathematical thinking, and has garnered support from area businesses and other groups in recent months.
Room 17 recently hired six new teachers, bringing its total to 10. It has also expanded its services to include support for middle and high school level math.
“We are looking forward to the extended opportunities the non-profit organization status will provide,” Cavender and Kaminski said in a statement. “We will be able to meet a wide range of math education needs in the Milford, CT community.”
