Our School-age Center, which our students call "A Special Place of Our Own," provides a warm, nurturing, safe and fun place for your "I'm too old for a babysitter" school-age child.  Our center provides care for children attending Fife Elementary, beginning with kindergarten through fifth grade and is located one building behind our Preschool Center on 62nd Ave E.

Each child receives individual attention to homework needs and has the opportunity to participate in self-directed as well as teacher-directed activities.  We pride ourselves on implementing curriculum that builds social skills and supports academic lessons taught in school.  For example, we look forward to planting a garden each year and working together in a gardening club.  Each year's garden provided us with many hours of collaborative enjoyment, lessons in science, math, and nutrition, as well as a lot of delicious fresh veggies to eat and share with our families.  This is just one of the fun learning opportunities available to students at our School-age center.

The following services are available at this center:

1.  Before and After School care
2.  Before School care
3.  After School care
4.  Drop in care (early release or no school days, if space is available)
5.  Summer camp
