Program Details
The After School Program offers a safe and supportive environment that positively impacts children's lives. By fostering enthusiasm for learning and encouraging positive social interactions and skill-building, we help children reach their full potential.
Our program features diverse activities, including crafts, science experiments, planned games, visits with local groups, and daily outdoor activities. These activities promote problem-solving, teamwork, empathy, and self-awareness, addressing key areas of physical, social, and emotional development.
Each day includes a mix of outside time, community guest visits, structured activities, and free time, ensuring a well-rounded and enriching experience for every child.
