We offer comprehensive academic and social-emotional learning opportunities throughout the year. Our engaging extracurriculars ignite student passion and inquiry, fostering a deeper application of academic content beyond the classroom.
We foster belonging, learning, trust and shared success through engaged families, students, educators, and community partners. This can occur in many forms such as surveys, hallway conversations, parent workshops, or community gatherings.

We encourage academic achievement and attainment by offering students school supplies they can take from the classroom to home. Ample school supplies strengthen student self-esteem, academic motivation, and a safe and caring environment for all. 
We empower students to feel confident and comfortable. For clothing challenges and unexpected situations we offer a variety of items so students can return to class, recess, or even job interviews feeling supported and ready to succeed.
We nourish student learning and development by promoting healthy habits such as physical activity, wellness education, and nutritional support. Our early investment in healthy habits lays the foundation for lifelong wellbeing. 

Our Services (1st revision)

We provide before, after-school, weekend, summer programs, individualized support, expanded time, and expanded staffing for academic and social-emotional learning opportunities. Our extracurricular activities motivate students to engage in meaningful inquiry-based learning to dive deeper into the application of academic content, and to explore their passions or interests. 
We partner with families, students, teachers, principals, and various community organizations to create a culture of belonging, learning, collective trust, and shared responsibility. Engagement can occur in both formal structures, such as site-based leadership teams and regularly administered surveys, and through more informal engagement, such as coffee with the coordinator, hallway conversations, and community gatherings. 
We strengthen conditions for student learning and healthy development by providing essential wellness services. With parent involvement and health professionals or community agencies we're able to address needs for resources, energy, internet assistance, shelter, healthcare, mental health and more. We also offer resources including hygiene, dental cleaning kits, and household cleaning supplies.
We assist academic achievement and attainment by offering students school supplies they can take with them to the classroom and back home. The right school supplies foster self-esteem, academic motivation, and a safe and caring environment for our students. These include new or gently used books, calculators, pencils, backpacks, and bicycle helmets. 
We empower students to feel confident, to reach their potential, feel connected, comfortable, and looking their best. In supporting the whole child we know clothing challenges, rips, tears, and growth happens. Students can be provided with a variety of new or gently used clothing items so they can quickly get back to the classroom, playground, or even to a job interview. 
We promote nutritional habits, physical activity, wellness education and resources. Our students and families are able to access nutritional support through healthy pre-made snacks, ethnic foods, emergency food backpacks, Thanksgiving food boxes, and more. All students flourish in thriving communities and with nourishing foods the conditions for student learning and healthy development strengthens.
