Before & After-School Academy

Our after-school program brings together physical activity, study time and a safe, supportive environment to help young people succeed in school, at home and throughout their lives.

​The After-School Academy serves children of working parents from the time school is out each day until parents arrive to pick them up in the evening. During that time, the program works to mold and shape elementary and middle school aged children through tutoring, leadership & character development, mentoring and recreational programs.
