Elementary

Enrich, Explore and Expand!

Elementary age children have a wide selection of activities to build upon their interests or to develop new ones. These activities also reinforce skills and concepts from school in fun and hands-on environments, to provide practical application of learning to every life. Popular topics are repeated from season to season with a variety of new offerings sprinkled in each time, as well.

Many youth program expenses qualify for education credit and/or deductions!
