Minnesota is proud to celebrate National Community Education Day!

Governor Tim Walz has officially proclaimed November 13, 2025, as Community Education Day across our state — recognizing the lifelong learning, leadership, and connection Community Education brings to Minnesota communities.
Our School Age Care program is proud to be part of a movement that empowers kids to explore, grow, and connect beyond the classroom.

From after-school adventures to hands-on enrichment, we’re building a community where every child feels supported, inspired, and ready to shine 🌟
