Multipurpose Room, Story Room, Homework Help CenterWhether you're gearing up for kindergarten or navigating middle school, this event offers something for everyone: movement, creativity, and the tools you need for a strong start to the school year.
Kick off the school year with a high-energy celebration designed for the whole family. This dynamic program invites kids to dance their wiggles out at our end-of-summer dance party—complete with upbeat music, bubbles, and plenty of room to move. Once the energy is flowing, families can re-engage their brains with hands-on STEAM activities featuring creative building challenges, LEGO / DUPLO, and open-ended maker play that sparks curiosity and confidence.
To round out the celebration, staff will guide families through back to school resources including homework help tools, research databases, digital learning platforms, and tips for supporting students at home.
