Back To School

After and exciting summer, it's already time for students to report back to school. The first day (half day) of school will be on Friday August 14 and the THRIVE after school program will begin on Monday August 17.

Changes this year

- THRIVE @ CWA is only accepting 55 students this year. High school students will sign up at CWA-Cayce Learning Center but will be bused and housed at the Martha O'Bryan Center. Stop by to register your child/children as soon as possible, as vacancies are limited.

- In addition to two full-time AmeriCorps positions, the center will be adding two new part-time AmeriCorps positions. As in years past, AmeriCorps memebrs will be assisting with THRIVE.

-THRIVE will also be hiring Transition Coaches to work directly with middle and high school students. Coaches will help students reach their individual goals and assist them in transitioning to high school and/or college.


The THRIVE After-School Enrichment Program continues to provide a safe and exciting learning environment for students in the Stratford cluster; offering services designed to develop citizenship awareness, strong character, and educational strenghts that lead to marketable skills and higher education.
