Where Learning and Fun Connect, Children Succeed
All children should have access to quality learning and fun outside the classroom. Without ample opportunity for free play, children will flounder in their development. It’s our mission to provide children innovative ways to learn and play, and we do that through the development of safe, affordable, and fun programming.
Our Heartbeat
At the center of everything we do is our four core values. These guide our meetings, financial decisions, programming choices, and everything else. We believe these values are necessary to build helpful holistic programming for the whole child.
We Cultivate Mastery
We support continual growth for all-children developing skills through explor,tion, and staff refining their craft through training, feedback, and leadership opportunities. We celebrate effort, learning, and progress. Everyone deserves the chance to pursue excellence and take pride in their accomplishments.
We Inspire Independence
We encourage agency, initiative, and responsibility in our students and in our team. Whether it's a child making a new friend or a staff member leading a new project, we create space for voice, ownership, and the confidence that comes from making choices and learning from them.
We Build Belonging
We foster a culture where everyone-children, families, and staff-feels respected, included, and connected. Belonging is created through strong relationships, open communication, and shared purpose. We believe people thrive when they know they are valued and part of something bigger than themselves.
We Practice Generosity
We believe in service to others and in creating a culture of kindness, teamwork, and giving back. Our children learn the joy of helping, and our staff model it through collaboration, mentorship, and support. We grow stronger when we lift each other up.

Your Education Program Design Experts
We partner with schools and community groups to provide before and after school programs, summer programs, and special opportunity programs.
We account for the diverse needs of schools by offering flexibility and choice. Every school we partner with is invited to work alongside us to build their own schedule and unique program they can be proud of.
The programs we provide are truly yours.
Start Your Innovative School Program
Partnership
Before getting started we’ll perform a needs analysis while aligning values. No two programs are the same and every organization gets personalized attention and curation. This is also the time we’ll develop a right-sized scope and create formal agreements.
Program Planning
Now that our partnership is established we’ll build out scheduling, engage your community, and hire a dedicated team. During this step, your program will begin to take shape as we curate the perfect program for you.
Training
We don’t leave our partners high and dry. Instead, we help train your team with ongoing learning and development with customizable curriculum that matches the values and needs of your organization.
Launch
Once your programs are stood up we help organize community events while providing open communication, operational support, and customer service. Your program is your own, but we offer support through it all.
