Curriculum Samples
We design our enrichment programs with purpose. Each session follows a structured, week-by-week progression that helps students build skills in a step-by-step manner. More than just fun activities, our curriculum is thoughtfully developed with specific learning outcomes that align with Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) and 21st Century Community Learning Center (21st CCLC) goals.
In doing so, we ensure students not only enjoy their experience but also develop the life skills they need to thrive.
