A new afterschool program is coming to the neighborhood! 📚🌱🏀🎨
Beginning Tuesday, October 13, the 1K Academy Afterschool Program will welcome students every Tuesday and Thursday from 2–6 PM at Russell Memorial CME Church.
And this is about more than homework.
We’re creating a place where our young people can learn, grow, lead, and thrive through tutoring and academic support, culturally responsive enrichment, gardening, arts and crafts, sports, recreation, and relationships with caring adults invested in who they are becoming.
We’ll be reaching out to families and students at nearby schools, including Burton Elementary, C.C. Spaulding Elementary, and other schools surrounding the Hayti community, as we build a program rooted right here in the neighborhood.
🚌 Transportation will be provided for participating students.
This is what partnership can look like: Russell Memorial CME Church’s 1K Academy, Grant Street Community, and Monument of Faith Church’s Social Justice and Outreach Team coming together to invest in the next generation.
