Since 2020, we have served hundreds of families across Winterville, Greenville, Belvoir, and North Greenville through a whole-child programming model. This is a hands-on role with youth. A typical afternoon includes greeting scholars at dismissal, supporting homework and academic practice, leading small-group enrichment activities, supervising snack and recreation, and building consistent relationships with the scholars in your group.
