Along with the many activities and field trips, the program also offers academic enrichment in math, language, reading, and comprehension. The classes are grouped by grades JK- K, 1-3, and 4-7. Generally the classes review content taught throughout the school year. In addition, classes often include an introduction to the concepts that will be taught in the upcoming academic year.
