DANDELION has just opened more spots for their after school program!

At Dandelion After School, kids don’t just spend the afternoon—they thrive.

We believe young people deserve the time, space, and support to explore their interests, follow their curiosity, and grow in ways that feel meaningful to them. We also believe that real social-emotional learning happens best through play, connection, and experiences that are naturally engaging and joyful.

Dandelion After School is a space where kids build relationships, develop independence, and make choices about how they spend their time. Each afternoon, we offer a mix of creative activities, games, hands-on arts and crafts projects, and neighborhood adventures, plus a nourishing snack to keep everyone energized!
