Bringing a bigger world into the classroom

Whether it’s a daily after-school program or a full-time summer program, we emphasize a variety of activities to help kids grow academically, socially, emotionally, and physically. We encourage a blend of group play, collaboration, and individual study. We value face-to-face interaction and encourage kids’ ability to focus, which means we incorporate less screen time and more “in-the-moment” time. And underlying everything we do is a sense of community involvement, good citizenship, and environmental stewardship.

• We develop personal relationship with kids’ school teachers and work closely with them to align our activities and studies with theirs
• We further the classroom experience with lots of activity, balancing on-site activities with off-site adventures
• Daily activities can include:
  • Science projects
  • Art and literature
  • Field trips to museums and parks
  • Sports activities
  • Skating
  • Bowling
  • Story time
  • Read-a-thons
  • Water play
  • Community service
  • Communication and social skills development
• We serve healthy snacks and meals throughout the day
• We continually focus on understanding and preventing bullying, peer pressure, and negative social behaviors—kindness always wins
