After-School Classes

Overview / Classes / Mission, Principles / Results


Over the past 16 years Powerful Learning Centers (formerly Community Schools) has evolved into an exemplary after-school program in Seattle’s Rainier Valley neighborhood, which contains some of the highest ratios of low-income, single parent families and non-English speaking individuals in the city.  Powerful Learning Centers has established itself as a leading model both locally and nationally in after-school programming. What sets us apart from most other community programs is our ability to not only reach out to school–aged children but also to provide opportunities for pre-schoolers, teens, and adults from school families and the community at large to participate in their neighborhood schools.
