LEARNING TREE

21st Century Community Learning Centers

Mission and Goals:

Funded by the Texas Education Agency's 21st Century Community Learning Centers grant, the Learning Tree after school programs are located at Anson Jones Middle School, Sam Rayburn Middle School, Sul Ross Middle School, Passmore Elementary, Meadow Village Elementary, Mary Hull Elementary, Linton Elementary, Cable Elementary, Valley Hi Elementary and Villarreal Elementary.

The Learning Tree programs provide after school enrichment classes, community service clubs, tutoring, homework help, mentoring, and Saturday School. Additionally, the programs offer opportunities to the students, families and community in the areas of education, health, and enrichment-all in a safe, supervised environment.

Through these learning, enrichment and support activities, the programs lessen exposure of our youth to negative influences, and unlock the potential for positive family and community development.
