School Age Room

The School Age Room is for children 4 years to 12 years of age. We offer before and after school programs that help develop their minds and provide help with homework.

Due to sharing a building with the Academy we may only have School Agers here when the Academy is also out of school. Alternative care needs to be provided for days that do not match with the Academy which has worked out well for our current families.
