After School & Summer Camp
After-school programs run 5 days a week, from school dismissal to 6pm. During school recess weeks, we extend program hours to 8am-6pm. Our Summer Camp programs run full-day, 5 days a week in July and August and include field trips to museums, pools, parks, and other outings throughout NYC. Throughout the year we host theme days, family nights, cultural celebrations, and youth performances for parents, schools, and the community.

Our afterschool and summer camp programs engage children in consistent group and community-building activities that promote social, physical, academic and artistic development during out-of-school hours. These programs offer a diverse range of activities that provide opportunities for children to practice and master skills while having fun.
- Team-building and student-driven activities build self-esteem, promote leadership, and develop positive social relationships.
- Enrichment activities – including literacy, STEM, and visual and performing arts – enhance academic skills, and foster imagination and creative expression.
- Dance, sports, and cooperative games provide daily exercise and outlets for energy.
- Our special events provide opportunities for sharing accomplishments, engaging families and building community.
