They are currently serving children up to the sixth grade. Each year the center adds another grade level so children can remain in the program until graduation. During the school year, the centers are open from 3:00pm to 6:30pm, Monday through Friday. There is also a 6-week day camp during the summer. Children receive tutoring and have computer access.
