Teen Programs are for grades 6th - 12th. During the summer, rising 6th graders (just finished their 5th grade school year) will be able to participate in the Teen Center programs. Most programs will be held in the Teen Center, but larger programs, such as Anime Club, will be held in the American Veterans Auditorium. Currently, we might hold other programs in the Auditorium to social distance.
Sign up for the Teen Scene Newsletter to keep up with programs and new materials. The Newsletter will resume in late January, 2022.
We welcome program suggestions! If you have an idea, please submit it to Ms. Jessica either in person or by email! (We can't do everything, but we can try.)
