Learning Opportunities

SMARTS offers a children's after-school program in Maryland & DC, providing enjoyable, meaningful ways to learn. Our curriculum empowers students to develop a growth mindset. While we offer academic support, SMARTS doesn’t just stop at schoolwork assistance. Our program also offers activities that engage their creative skills, encouraging problem-solving and out-of-the-box thinking.  

STEAM-Based Activities

With education and safety as top priorities, our STEAM-based activities incorporate dance and the arts with more traditional science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) activities. This allows children to turn aimless after-school hours into learning opportunities in a well-balanced, safe environment.

Academic Support

We provide full support to learners, including homework assistance during the after-school program. Our staff members are skilled educators who are available to answer homework questions, provide targeted reading intervention, and encourage healthy school habits.

Lifelong Learning

Engaging in lifelong learning helps individuals remain open to new ideas, enhancing both personal fulfillment and professional success. Whether through courses, reading, or hands-on experiences, lifelong learning empowers people to lead more informed, versatile, and resilient lives.
