Kids on Campus

Kids on Campus We believe that through educational, nutritional, and recreational opportunities we can help student Our Goals: 1.)

Our Mission: Kids on Campus is an Appalachian community-university partnership that empowers underserved, at-risk children and their families in the realization of their full potential through educational, nutritional, and recreational opportunities. Provide children with the opportunity to enhance academic and life skills through high-quality out-of-school programming. 2.) Serve as a model progra

m that will encourage and challenge other communities to develop partnerships to provide services for economically disadvantaged children. 3.) Secure the necessary funding to make Kids on Campus programming available to all at-risk children and families. Our History: Kids on Campus was established in 1996 when a need was identified within the community and Ann Teske, founder of Kids on Campus, came up with a way to fill that need. She provided the local school districts of Athens county with a place where students could get nutritious meals, as well as continue the learning that took place during the school year, through the summer months. In 2001, with grants from the 21st Century Community Learning Centers, Kids on Campus expanded its summer program to include afterschool enrichment and tutoring programs. Today, these sites continue to focus on making sure each student receives a healthy snack, free play, fun clubs, creative & educational hands-on activities, college & career preparation, homework help, tutoring, and math/reading interventions.
