Project Title: After School Program
Project Description:

The Westside’s mission is to empower youth and families socially, academically, and spiritually, inspiring them to take on leadership roles in their community. The Westside’s After School Program (ASP) provides a safe place where middle and high school students can come to escape the stresses that they face on a daily basis as well as receive the academic help they need to succeed in school. The program is open from 3:15-7pm, Monday through Thursday. Students receive homework help from tutors, share a meal, and then attend an elective of their choice until 7pm. Over 90 students from West Chester Area School District are registered for the ASP this school year.
