Northside Learning Center: Elementary
In the summer of 2023, our Delmont and Highland Park Learning Centers combined to form one larger Northside Learning Center! At this center, we serve students from Richmond Public Schools Barack Obama Elementary and Overby-Sheppard Elementary, as well as Henrico County Public School students from Glen Lea Elementary who also live in or near the Delmont Plaza Apartments, a Section 8 housing complex on Delmont St.
Located at: 3080 Meadowbridge Rd

Southside Learning Center: Elementary
Our Southwood (now Southside) Learning Center was established in 2017 to serve the Spanish-speaking community in Richmond’s south side. Our Southside Learning Center is currently closed for the Fall 2023 semester while we hire and train new staff and move into our new space at Belmont United Methodist Church.
Updates about our Southside location will be announced in our monthly newsletter.

Remix Mentoring
Our Remix program began unofficially as “Youth Life at Nite” in 2009 as a program for older students who graduated from our elementary centers. Now, instead of providing daily after-school programming that just competes with other middle and high school extracurriculars, our Remix programming provides one-on-one mentors for students. Mentors meet with Remix students between 6-8 hours a month to build relationship, have conversation, and help them meet their life goals. We hope to set students up to successfully navigate the next step of life after school. Whether they aim to pursue college or a career, we walk beside them to encourage and provide support along the way.
