To help students develop academic and character skills that lead to success.
For many students, after school means being home alone or spending time on the streets – both known contributors to risky behaviors. THRIVE! replaces that time with regular, productive after school program that includes interaction with mentors, peers and community partners who genuinely care about them and their families. We utilize curriculum including Social and Emotional learning and hands-on STEM Learning.”
