The 21st Century Community Learning Centers program is an academic enrichment after-school program that provides educational opportunities to motivate, educate and challenge students to achieve their highest potential.

Wayne State University's Let's Read Tutors program brings college students into our school to provide personalized reading support to young learners. These dedicated tutors work one-on-one with students, helping them develop their reading skills through engaging and interactive lessons.

The Attendance Recognition program at our school celebrates students who demonstrate excellent attendance throughout the school year. Students who consistently arrive on time and are present for class are recognized for their commitment to learning and responsibility. To motivate students to maintain strong attendance, we hold weekly pizza raffles and monthly Nintendo Switch raffles as exciting incentives. This program encourages all students to prioritize their education and reinforces the importance of being present, both academically and as active members of the school community. Through these fun rewards and recognitions, we inspire others to strive for perfect attendance and to value the opportunity to learn every day.

The Newcomer's Program is designed to support students who are new to the country and are learning English as a second language. This program provides a welcoming environment where students receive tailored instruction to help them develop their language skills while adjusting to a new culture and educational system. With a focus on both academic growth and social-emotional support, the Newcomer's Program helps students build confidence, succeed in their studies, and become active members of the school community.

The Safety Patrol at Harms Elementary School is a group of responsible students who help ensure the safety of their peers during arrival, dismissal, and throughout the school day. They assist with maintaining order in hallways, and encouraging safe behavior, serving as positive role models for the entire school community. 

At our school, the "Student of the Month" program honors one to two students each month who have consistently demonstrated the key qualities of being respectful, responsible, and safe. Teachers select these students based on their positive behavior, strong work ethic, and ability to contribute to a supportive and safe learning environment. The chosen students are recognized for showing respect toward their peers and teachers, taking responsibility for their actions and learning, and promoting safety in both the classroom and school community. These students set an excellent example for others, embodying the values we strive to uphold as a school.

Urban Neighborhood Initiatives provides a highly valuable daily after school Homework Help Program.
