Research shows that at-risk children who have the opportunity to participate in a wide range of structured after-school activities have greater academic success and notably improved social behaviors.

The structure of the extended day and enrichment programs is designed to develop social maturity, leadership skills and initiative.
The following is a brief outline of our ten-hour day:
7:15 am – 7:30 am Breakfast
7:30 am – 9:00 am Morning Activities
9:00 am – 9:30 am Morning Gathering
9:30 am – 3:00 pm Academic classes
3:00 pm – 4:00 pm Academic Study Hall
4:00 pm – 5:15 pm Co-curricular (clubs, sports, activities)
5:15 pm – Dismissal
We provide a safe and secure environment during a time of the day where many children can be susceptible to risky behavior and circumstances.
During Academic Study Hall, students have a quiet time to work on homework and have access to tutors for extra help.

Our students participate in a full-range of Co-curricular Activities including:
- Arts & Crafts
- Boy Scouts
- Chess
