Our Programs

help kids become amazing students

Our after school and summer learning activities help middle school students develop the skills, drive, and personal agency they need for a 21st Century knowledge-based global economy. Through experiential learning, our youth create, collaborate, problem solve, communicate, and connect with the world.


We believe it’s critically important to reach students in their middle school years, well before they enter high school. Important components of our programs include academic enrichment, STEM exploration and high school, college and career connections.


Currently P4L serves up to 150 students, annually, at 5 MCPS middle schools, providing Science Technology Engineering Math focused, project-based learning. We expect to add 2 other school sites in early 2022.
