Empowering youth through education

 

Our Mission

Empowering youth to realize their God-given purpose by providing quality academic support through after school and summer programs.

 Summer Academy

Garden Learning Center’s Summer Academy combines individualized academic instruction with fun enrichment activities that expand our students’ horizons. At Summer Academy, students make new friends, explore new interests, and prepare to start the upcoming academic year with confidence. Join us for an unforgettable summer!

After School Program

We believe that with access to quality tutoring and a nurturing community, all students are able to succeed academically. Our program accepts motivated students from 4th-8th grade, and we support them throughout their high school years. Together, we work to reach academic goals in a fun and nurturing environment.

Applications for the current school year are closed. If you’d like information on the 2022-2023 year, please complete the interest form below.

  • I loved volunteering at GLC! The enthused, warmhearted, and diverse group of students were such a joy to work with. We saw significant gains in the students' writing mechanics as well as their reading fluency. Come here to hone your English and math skills, learn how to cook delectable dishes, do cool crafts, and have gobs of fun!
