“In order to be great adults, we need to know how to be and how to function appropriately throughout childhood. Everything we do in this afterschool program is based on that foundation.” Wilma George, Dir. FDC Compass
Understanding this concept at an early age will help a child successfully navigate adulthood. It is clear that every action of the 14 counselors is for the children, providing a nurturing, fun, and educational environment that can help them reach their full potential. It is also apparent how much passion and care the staff members put into this program. The program flourishes due to the teams’ innate ability to establish strong relationships with the children and their school community. Activities are especially created to encompass both educational and social-emotional components.
Throughout the school year every child has the opportunity to participate in activities that promote their academic acquisition and enhances their importance of self-awareness.
