BEFORE

& AFTER SCHOOL

Our Before and After School Enrichment Program is built around four core areas: academic enrichment, health and fitness, life skills development, and cultural enrichment and exploration. Through a variety of engaging indoor and outdoor activities, children have opportunities to strengthen academic skills, build confidence, develop positive relationships, and grow socially and emotionally.

Our Commitment to Equal Access

We believe every student should have the opportunity to participate and benefit from our programs, regardless of their family’s ability to pay. Financial assistance is available to help ensure that financial circumstances do not prevent students from accessing the same opportunities and experiences as their peers.

We encourage families who may benefit from financial assistance to apply. All requests will be handled with care, respect, and confidentiality. We also accept Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) through Illinois Action for Children.
