MSCR Afterschool at Spring Harbor

Guiding Principles – MSCR is a department of the School District and we all have an obligation to work together to improve the school experience and success of our young people.

Our Vision

• Student attachment to school through positive interactions with peers, school staff and, volunteers.
• Student achievement and attendance by providing a variety of programs that focus on academic achievement, social-emotional skill development, and recreational skills.
• Student’s world view by exposure to a variety of activities.

21st Century Learning Center

Purpose

• 21st Century Community Learning Centers provide academic enrichment opportunities during non-school hours for children. 
• Our program helps students meet state and local standards in core academic subjects, such as reading and math by offering a broad array of enrichment activities that can complement their regular academic programs.
• For more information on the structure and purpose of the 21st Century Learning Centers refer to these standards and examples.

Our Site

• The first period of our after-school program every Monday-Thursday is academic time. The primary activity during this time is Study Space, a drop-in space for homework and quiet reading that meets every Monday-Thursday. An alternate activity is always offered for Academic Club students who do not have homework, which includes art, puzzles, current events, and trivia that fosters academic enrichments.
