We believe a quality program for school-age children should be comfortable, relaxed, and provide experiences to complement each child's home and school life.  It is our primary goal to provide a warm and caring environment for the children, with a variety of educational and recreational opportunities. A quality school-age program should promote and maintain growth in self-worth to each child, provide a wide variety of new experiences to stimulate new growth, and build on the current interests the child has already acquired.

A daily schedule is established so that children and parents know what to expect from the program.  This schedule can be flexible enough to allow for spontaneity and changes in the program for field trips, music, group sports, and games.  Quiet periods and space and time to "do nothing" are important.  Children usually choose from activities in an open classroom setting.  Indoor and outdoor activities provide a balanced program.

Our summer school-age program offers a variety of recreational activities along with stimulation to learn about new ideas.  Opportunities are created to allow the children "hands on" experiences outside the center.  Community resources and programs are utilized to their maximum.
