Rise and shine! Our school age kiddos kick off their mornings bright and early, from 6:00 AM to 8:15 AM, bursting with laughter and curiosity before heading off to their local schools like PS 36 and Early Life (Watson Ave). After a full day of learning, we swoop in at 2:30 PM to pick them up and keep the fun and growth rolling until 6:00 PM.
Our program is a magical blend of dynamic activities, teamwork, and inspiration, designed to engage and support every child from Monday through Friday. From hands-on projects that light up curiosity to cooperative games that build lifelong friendships, each day is a fresh chance for your child to shine bright!
Every child gets dedicated homework help to keep those assignments in check. Still, our special tutoring option offers extra-tailored support perfect for tackling tricky subjects or diving into creative projects. It’s where focused learning meets playful fun!
