Redwoods program: 1st-2nd

Program Description:

Redwoods is a part of Albany Children’s Center. Redwoods serves children in the first and second grades, providing high quality school-age care before and after the elementary school day. The Redwoods program provides a respectful, safe and engaging atmosphere in which the children learn in a play-based environment.

All children enrolled in Redwoods will be engaged in thematic learning experiences that involve reading, writing, arts and crafts, science, math, and social studies. The learning is play-based and offered both inside the classroom and outside. We implement a developmentally appropriate and culturally responsive program. We enable children to feel pride about their identity and to develop respect and appreciation for differences.

The morning, before care, program is available 7:30-9:30.  Breakfast snack is provided during the morning hours.

The afternoon, after care, program is open 2:00-6:00. Afternoon snack is provided during the afternoon hours.
