What a Typical Day Looks Like
9:45 – 10:00 | Arrival & Check-In
Students arrive, settle in, and prepare for the day. This window allows for a calm, unhurried transition into the program.
10:00 – 11:00 | Study Hall
Students work independently on parent-provided materials or quiet projects. Staff provide supervision, light guidance, and support for focus and productivity.
Note: This is not tutoring or academic instruction.
11:00 – 12:00 | Life Skills
Group activities that build communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and personal responsibility. Students participate in discussions and hands-on activities that support confidence and real-world skills.
12:00 – 12:45 | Social Skills & Lunch (BYO)
Students eat together and practice conversation, manners, etiquette, and peer interaction in a relaxed, guided setting.
12:45 – 1:45 | Enrichment
Students take part in high-energy, hands-on activities that blend fitness, motivation, and creative expression. This block may include movement and wellness challenges, rhythm and music-based activities, theater or comedy games, physical education and sports, and practical lessons like basic economics and real-world decision-making. It’s designed to keep students engaged, build confidence and discipline, and make learning feel active and enjoyable.
1:45 – 2:00 | Reflection & Dismissal
Participants wrap up projects, reflect on the day, and prepare for departure.

Exact activities vary by day. Sessions are designed to provide a consistent rhythm while allowing flexibility within each block.
