21st Century CCLC "Castle Kids"

21st Century Community in Schools Learning Center Overview: SWES Castle Kids

Sweetwater Elementary School's 21st Century Community Learning Center "Castle Kids" is a part of the 21st Century Community Learning Center's federally funded grant program, which concentrates on early intervention to help our students succeed in their education.

Our program is strategically designed to increase student academic skills, improve self-esteem, and provide exposure to life-skills through hands-on activities. We currently provide academic tutoring and enrichment for 45 selected students in the second through fifth grades. This is a free program for qualifying students. Qualification is dependent upon teacher referral as well as a student assessment to be examined by the directors of the program.

Our program operates daily on regular school days from 2:45pm-5:15pm. On Friday, the program operates from 2:45pm-4:45pm. All students enrolled will receive a daily snack. If school is not in session on a particular day or afternoon, this program will not be in operation. Transportation is provided for students living in the Sweetwater attendance district.
