AFTER SCHOOL SPARK

This program is offered Monday – Friday at Anne M. Jeans Elementary School in unincorporated DuPage County to students in Community Consolidated School District 180. It is designed to support the whole child academically, socially, and emotionally. The Community House provides a safe, welcoming, and engaging environment where children are encouraged to excel, learn, and grow each day.

In addition to dedicated homework support and academic enrichment, participants take part in creative, dynamic activities that spark curiosity and build confidence. Programming includes hands-on arts experiences, sports and physical wellness, career readiness exploration, and financial literacy education. Through collaborative projects and group bonding activities, children develop teamwork, leadership, and communication skills while forming meaningful connections with peers and trusted mentors.

Our goal is to inspired lifelong learning, foster independence, and help every child discover their strengths in a fun, supportive setting.
