Launched in 2014 as a program of the Stamford Peace Basketball Club, Inc. the Beyond Limits Academic Program provides highly subsidized one-on-one  tutoring and informal mentoring to students attending Stamford Public Schools and other schools in lower Fairfield County.  Tutoring is typically conducted by upperclassmen, many of whom are referred by teachers, administrators, and other tutors.  Tutoring sessions are held at our headquarters on Long Ridge Road, which includes dedicated tutoring rooms equipped with chromebooks, school supplies, and other program materials, a lounge are with Wi-Fi for families, a kitchen with water and snacks, and academic reference books.

Beyond Limits mission is to further level the academic playing field and ultimately eliminate the opportunity gap for local area youth eligible for discounted services by providing high-quality, subsidized, non-school based peer-to-peer tutoring, mentoring, academic advocacy, and enrichment activities.

• EQUITY through access: Providing accessible, high-quality academic support to bridge the opportunity gap for all students.

• EMPOWERMENT through support: Fostering confidence and independence through personalized tutoring, enrichment programs, and informal mentoring, helping students reach their full potential. 

• COMMUNITY through connection: Building a collaborative network among students, families, and tutors to create a supportive learning environment that drives success and emphasizing advocating skills.

• We provide Individualized academic tutoring in math & science – generally two 1-hour sessions per week per participant, available on weekday afternoons and evenings as well as Saturdays on a personalized schedule.
• Tutoring is conducted “peer-to-peer”, i.e. our tutors are high-achieving local high school juniors, seniors and local college students assigned to 4th thru 10th graders. Tutors and tutees rotate – with pairings based upon our assessment of current best “fit.”
• Tutoring sessions can take place in person in our tutoring center, or remotely via Zoom, which can allow for some greater flexibility and convenience.
• Tutoring fees are on a sliding scale and are substantially subsidized for families who are eligible to receive discounted services (formerly free or reduced-price school lunch).
• Our approach also offers valuable informal mentoring benefits.
