After School & Summer School Services
KDKE’s after-school and summer programming places emphasis on holistic learning.
Studies show that after-school and summer programming that take a holistic and life-oriented teaching approach have more positive outcomes for students academically, emotionally, intellectually, and socially than programs with just a specific focus.
KDKEdesigns programs that foster communication, leadership, problem-solving skills and expose students to real-world applications and experiences. KDKE’sprograms build self-esteem, confidence, wisdom, and understanding and offer the opportunity to practice, apply and perfect what is learned in context to life experiences. KDKE keeps kids busy, engaged, learning and growing in every aspect of their lives.
KDKE can assist your institution or organization in developing and implementing a fabulous after-school or summer program or you can choose from one of our signature programs:
