Our High School After School Programs run Monday - Thursday starting in September and ending in June. Students enrolled in our program can choose between STEAM or Youth Entrepreneurship tracks each semester. In addition, they receive tutoring/homework support, and engage with peers in workshops and hang out sessions throughout each semester. We want to support our youth, and recognize that schedules ebb and flow. Based on the students’ schedule - they can opt for just Tues/Thursdays (for STEAM/Entrepreneurship topics), or they can come all 4 days to get the full experience! Please note - once committed to a certain schedule/program, we expect students to come on those days!

Transportation: Students must be able to get to and from program, however we do provide metro cards and will work with schools to extend their transportation with NFTA when applicable.
