After School Program
Our Program

Our mission is to create and sustain a safe and fun environment while children can learn, finish homework and access expanded educational opportunities. These are main components of the Red Dragonfly after school program:



Chinese

Chinese is our core program. We use “ShuangShuang Chinese Book” as our program's main learning material. Our goal is to make Chinese learning easy and fun, to build a solid foundation and to create a Chinese atmosphere. Students learn Chinese characters through Chinese geography, Chinese history, Chinese philosophy and Chinese literature.

We believe that a small sized class is very important for Chinese learning. Students are grouped into less than 10 by their levels after they take the assessment test.



Language Arts - Common Core Aligned

This program enhances and expands CA Educations Standard language arts concepts during student school year. We use current California standard instructional materials that coincide with the curriculum of local school districts.



Homework

We provide a quiet environment for students to work on their school assignments. The instructors are available to help students and review their homework. We want our kids to go home with homework finished.



Math - Common Core Aligned
