Cassie Harris had a problem: her niece was struggling with math and reading and needed summer school classes, but the nearly broke Philadelphia School District wasn't offering them.
Enter Mother Bethel A.M.E. Church, where on Tuesday 20 students bent over worksheets, summarized passages, and worked one-on-one with teachers on word problems.
All free.
