Students build solar cars during after school programing led by Edgewater Collective
From Edgewater Collective:
Since we began our work supporting the Edgewater area schools in 2013, we have been helping write grants and advocating for after school programs. High-quality after school programs have been shown to support holistic development, reduce risky behaviors and provide a safe, supportive environment for students. The need for after school programming is even greater due to the impacts of the pandemic.
Jefferson Junior/Senior High School and Lumberg Elementary School have after school programming through a 21st Century Community Learning Center grant. This school year we have started supporting after school programming at Edgewater Elementary School and we need your help expanding these programs to Molholm Elementary School. Our goal is to take what we learn this school year and find a way to sustainably continue after school programming into the future.
Here’s more on what we hope to do through these after school programs:
