The Kid's College is dedicated to inspiring elementary school students from all socio-economic backgrounds to reach higher academic achievement by providing engaging educational enrichment programs that build academic, problem-solving and decision making skills that instill a sense of discipline, achievement and personal worth. We focus in four key areas: the visual arts, the performing arts, STEM (science, technology, engineering, math), and life skills, including financial literacy.Our mission extends to help transform our low-income communities through the Kid's College Cares education program for disadvantaged and at-risk students. The Kid's College Cares program helps disadvantaged children to experience educational enrichment that will inspire them to learn through hands-on educational activities and which fills some of the gaps left behind by changing educational budgets and priorities. The program provides students access to a rich array of subjects and participation in active learning, enabling them to be much better equipped for higher order, creative thinking skills which are critical for their long-term success. Through grant funding and donors we are able to provide the same high quality enrichment programs to these less fortunate children at a substantially reduced rate. A
