The Organization, founded by Ms. Melanie Lester in December 2000, emerged from her vision of creating a creative dance team emphasizing academic excellence. To participate in the program, students were required to maintain a minimum grade of a B average, a standard that unfortunately excluded some less academically successful students from participation. Recognizing this challenge, Ms. Lester reached out to a consultant to develop a comprehensive program aimed at supporting the youth in the South Tifton community.
Housed in the Phillipsburg area, the Organization welcomes students from all parts of Tift County, promoting inclusivity and accessibility. The primary mission of the Organization is to empower youth through a variety of initiatives, including mentoring, youth leadership training, literacy programs, and additional resources designed to enhance students' academic performance. Through these efforts, the Organization strives to create a supportive environment that fosters personal growth, academic achievement, and community engagement among the youth of Tift County.

South Tifton Learning Center has been a great experience for my son. I live in Atlanta, Georgia but I look forward to taking my 12-year-old son Chasten Kendrick there for Tutoring during his summer breaks. During his time there, this past Summer 2018 he needed help with the Reading portion of the Georgia Milestone. He got everything he needed to pass it and I’m very thankful for the help he received. Chasten passed the Georgia Milestone with flying colors when he retook the test. Ms. Lester worked with him countless hours and I can’t thank her enough. There are so many kids that need help, but some people really aren’t aware of the great services she provides for the kids. I think this program should be expanded throughout Tift County with the appropriate resources and a larger building. It’s very beneficial and I look forward to bringing my son next summer.

The environment was always clean, safe, and inviting as Tristin Chaney added to his daily learning as we began process. I commend the dream that Melanie Lester has for the Community of Tift County through South Tifton Learning Center.

South Tifton Learning Center is such a great place for your kids to learn or add to their education. As for my sons Christian age 7 and Mardio (Mj) age 3 learned a lot while attending Ms. Melanie Lester and her staff got Christian ready to go to Kindergarten. They taught him everything he needed in order to start school on the right level and anytime I need her to help them she does not hesitate. My son Mj is at R.L. Mack but I promise he is beyond a Pre-K Level. Thank you so much Ms. Lester at South Tifton Learning Center, for exceptional service, knowledge, dedication and time that is put into helping my children or anyone else children excel in their education. Ms. Lester continue to strive for greatness and making South Tifton Learning Center the best it can be.
