Academic Support
Students will receive daily homework assistance / academic support to benefit from the additional help in their academic studies. They will also be working in small leadership group activities and projects in order to introduce them to the concepts of teamwork, community, and responsibility. Please note that it is the parent's responsibility to ensure that all homework is completed and corrected. 

Arts and Crafts
Students will explore art-making fundamentals through a series of art projects that stimulate their visual and tactile senses. They will also be introduced to art materials such as oil pastels, tissue paper, watercolors, model magic, and much more.

Music 
Students will learn the basics of playing guitar, piano, violin, singing, trumpet, producing their own music, and more. They will also learn to name the parts on the instrument, how to maintain it, read simple notation (standard notation and tablature), and perform like a professional. Students will have the opportunity to perform alone and with others.

Girl Scouts
