The Youth Center
The Youth Center is a welcoming place
The Youth Center, located on the grounds of The Lord’s Place Family Campus, now known as the Jack & Evelyn Alexander Place, provides a stable environment for learning and enrichment to meet the needs and learning styles of all children (Kindergarten – 12th Grade). It mirrors a rich, rewarding learning atmosphere similar to school, with displays of student work and academic achievement awards.
- Children can develop and improve their social skills and enhance good character traits. The Center employs the “Character Counts Program."
- Children have the opportunity to enrich their learning through reading and technology. This includes iReady and various other technology-based learning platforms provided by the school district. The Center also has a grade-level reading library that shares county standards, and students are held accountable through reading logs, as well as completing book reports.
- Children can expand and explore their interests through art, dance, music, and sports. Activities sponsored by our community partners throughout the year are based on the interests of the children and will be provided by volunteers from Oxbridge Academy, as well as other outside volunteers.
- Children can take advantage of tutoring services provided by teachers and volunteers. These services take place three times a week from the school district and volunteers.
- Children can participate in various field trips throughout the school year that are both fun and educational.
- Children can also partake in a career night, where they will have the opportunity to meet individuals from a range of different fields. This night is informative as well as has students explore various career paths, either through college or vocational schools.
