Center for Excellence (CFE)
Serving grades 1-12, CFE is an intensive program that includes individualized remedial math and reading instruction, tutoring and homework help along with counseling and mentoring. Students attend for three hours everyday after school. We also offer a 9-week long summer camp as an expansion of CFE with the aim of combating summer learning loss. Participants in CFE Summer attend five days a week for eight hours a day on campus where they receive tennis instruction, academic enrichment, and breakfast and lunch. STEM Enrichment Programs - Through a partnership with Cyber Secure Kids and as a NSBE Jr. chapter, educational enrichment supplements to CFE and CFE Summer are offered to include robotics, cybersecurity, engineering, math competitions, and science projects. Art projects are also included.
Life skills training is embedded throughout all of our tennis and education programs.

Through the Arthur Ashe Children’s Program (AACP), WTEF enhances the health, safety and academic performance of elementary school students every school year.
