• Programs are offered free of charge.
• You can help us provide a great program by telling us what your class is studying, any special needs your group has, and what you would like emphasized.
• Programs are developed in accordance with the NC Standard Course of Study guidelines. These include Arts Education, English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. A complete list is available for each program according to your class's level.
