At King Street Center (KSC), children practice building their social-emotional skills, try new physical activities, and strengthen their academic skills daily. This is accomplished through strong staff, tutors, & community partners as well as close ties and communication with parents and the school district. Significant learning loss and emotional trauma has occurred during this pandemic for all children but even more so for KSC families. It is critical that we welcome tutors and additional literacy support back into our programs. In addition to this intensive academic support, every day at King Street Center also includes warm meals, tinkering, art, cooking, and loads of fun gym games – which contribute to the overall success of a child.

Extend the pilot afterschol program where all students in grands 1-6 can attend. It will offer enrichment opportunities and physical fitness with an additional hour of homework assistance.
