| Round Robin Tutoring Program Accomplishment Cadets Rising successfully operated the "Round Robin Tutoring" Program from October 2025 through May 2026 at Kappa VI Middle School in Queens, New York City. The program was designed to provide academic support, enrichment opportunities, and positive youth engagement for middle school students in grades 6 through 8. A total of 92 students participated in the program during the school year. The program operated twice weekly on Tuesdays and Thursdays and consisted of structured 21/2-hour sessions that combined academic instruction with sports enrichment activities. Students rotated through three instructional components: English Language Arts (ELA), Mathematics, and Sports Enrichment. Each rotation lasted approximately 40 minutes, with scheduled transition periods between classroom instruction and gym sessions to ensure organization and student engagement throughout the program. Each academic and enrichment component was led by a certified New York City teacher or qualified instructor who provided individualized instruction, mentoring, and educational support. The ELA and Mathematics sessions focused on strengthening foundational academic skills, improving classroom performance, reinforcing homework completion, increasing reading comprehension, and developing problem-solving abilities. The Sports Enrichment component emphasized physical wellness, teamwork, leadership, discipline, communication, and confidence-building through organized athletic activities and structured group interaction. The Round Robin Tutoring Program created a safe, supportive, and engaging after-school environment where students could receive additional educational assistance while also participating in healthy recreational activities. The rotational structure helped maintain student attention and participation by allowing students to engage in multiple learning environments during each session. The program also encouraged positive peer interaction, improved attendance consistency, and increased student motivation toward academic achievement. Through this initiative, Cadets Rising strengthened its mission of empowering youth through education, mentorship, and sports-based development programming. The organization successfully provided underserved youth with access to certified educators, structured enrichment opportunities, and positive role models that supported both academic growth and personal development. The program's consistent attendance and participation demonstrated strong community support and highlighted the need for continued educational and youth development services within the Queens community. | $0 | $20,904 |

Students participated in supervised activities designed to promote teamwork, discipline, leadership, confidence, critical thinking, and positive social interaction. The Chess Club focused on strategy development, concentration, patience, and problem-solving skills.

Participants engaged in age-appropriate training activities that encouraged focus, perseverance, confidence-building, and conflict-resolution skills while promoting physical wellness and emotional self-regulation.

| Explanation | Hello, my name is Brian Prioleau and I'm the founder, I received information from a CPA that my 990 filing was due on June 15th 2026. I thought that I had time to file this, it wasn't until I saw a random post on social media talking about late IRS penalties for late 990 submissions after May 15th did I call my CPA and question them. I was pissed to find out the wrong information. I decided to fill out and complete my 990 without them. I will find another CPA moving forward. I promise to NEVER miss another IRS deadline ever again. I'm so upset at missing the deadline and filing this late. I'm. a small non profit and I bring chess programs, martial arts programs, sports program and boy scouting program to under served students in NYC. Every pennny counts and please allow me this grace and I will never miss another IRS date ever again. | ExplanationTxt |
