We believe that providing children with a solid and nurturing foundation will empower them in academic, social, and spiritual endeavors throughout their lives.
We engage participants in the following daily activities:
Snack & Share
Outdoor Play
Homework
Enrichment Activities
Supervised Indoor Play
Reading & Circle Time
Activity Zone
Grades 3-6
