Staff pick students up directly from classrooms and lead a mix of academic support, team games, enrichment activities, and outdoor play. The program is closely connected to the school day. Staff coordinate with Flynn teachers, participate in school events, and help create a sense of continuity for students from morning to afternoon. Kids build strong relationships, stay engaged, and take part in fun, themed activities they look forward to.
