The Wilkinsburg School District, in partnership with the Neighborhood Learning Alliance, proudly offers the K-5 Little Warriors After-School Program, a 36-week program designed to empower students to embrace their strength, build a sense of community, and explore engaging learning activities that support their health and well-being. The program runs from September through June and ends each day at 6:30 p.m.
Students will participate in active play, project-based learning, enriched academic experiences, and exciting field trips. The program offers academic enrichment, STEAM projects, active play, and snack/dinner each day.
