21st Century COLA Afterschool and Summer Camp
The COLA Afterschool Program and Summer Camp provides enriching learning experiences that support each participant’s academic growth and personal development. We offer homework assistance, tutoring in math and reading, character building, physical education, creative arts, leadership and STEAM activities all structured in a supportive environment.
I support the educational programs that teach and inspire young people in the area of economic empowerment. The afterschool and summer programs allow young people a safe place to go for fun activities. Mrs. Norma Brown, Community Supporter
