CLUB 21

In partnership with Commercial Township Schools and Cumberland County Empowerment Zone, Millville Public Schools was awarded a 21st Century Community Learning Center Grant to serve over 200, 4th and 5th graders at Haleyville-Mauricetown, Holly Heights, Mt. Pleasant, Rieck Avenue, RM Bacon, Silver Run Elementary Schools and 6th through 8th graders at Lakeside Middle School. The after-school and summer program is known as CLUB 21.

The goals of the program are: 

1. To provide high-quality educational and enrichment programs that will enable participants to improve academic achievement, and promote positive behavior and appropriate social interaction with peers and adults.

2. To implement activities that promote parental involvement and provides opportunities for literacy and related educational development to the families of participating students.

3. To measure participants’ progress and program effectiveness through monitoring and evaluating.

All schools include academic, social, emotional and physical activities. All schools will focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). We will continue present partnerships and collaborations.
