Mike Gair2023-08-28 10:29:132023-08-28 10:29:13Nurturing Young Minds: Why students should learn about their communitySCHOOL-AGE PROGRAMS
6 – 12 years
We understand the importance of keeping our school-age children active! Our school-age programs combine extra-curricular activities with a strong emphasis on social/emotional development.
Extra-curricular activities include art, music and theater, sports, field trips, and science, with a component of social responsibility. Our educators guide children to develop a positive self-concept while understanding their impact on others and the world around them. School-agers participate in team building and character development activities, as well as community service projects.
In addition, our educators provide homework assistance in a quiet area so that your child’s education does not stop at the end of the school day.
Our school-age programs include:
- Before and after-school programs, including transportation
- Summer camp programs, including field trips
- Enrichment classes in art, music, STEM, cooking, and sports
- Homework assistance
- Community projects
- Character development curriculum
- Team building and leadership activities
