TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM
Introducing Club 105 – Enrichment with Transportation
We’re excited to announce the launch of Club 105, our newest after-school enrichment program with transportation—designed to provide your child with a safe, engaging, and empowering experience each day after school.
This unique opportunity is exclusively available to 50 students ages 7+ from Thomas Edison School and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Participants will be picked up directly from school by trusted West End House staff and transported to the Clubhouse, where they will participate in high-quality programs that focus on:
🎨 Dive into a season-long, specialized Arts or Sports project
🏆 Join enrichment clubs that focus on building real-world skills
📚 Receive small-group academic support
🍽️ Enjoy healthy dinners in a welcoming community
🤝 Build friendships and develop confidence through meaningful engagement
Why Club 105?
Research shows that young people who attend a high-quality after-school program for at least 105 days per year are more than twice as likely to graduate from high school and thrive long-term.
That’s why Club 105 is grounded in consistent attendance, strong relationships, and purposeful programming—to ensure each child feels confident, capable, and connected.
