Middle School After School Program

Ever wonder what your 6th, 7th, or 8th grader is up to during those after-school hours before you get home from work Well, wonder no more - sign them up for M.A.P. Our Middle School After School program is one of those little known secrets on this side of town. The program began in 1999 to provide a safe and fun after school environment for 6th-8th graders. Students are currently picked up at Memorial Middle School, Spring Forest Middle School, and Westchester Academy. After school hours are spent at the Refuge, MDUMC's teen club at 13150 Memorial, and at the main church campus at 12955 Memorial. During their time at M.A.P. your youth will be taken care of by counselors who truly care about them and will provide various activities, snacks, and homework assistance. Just think of M.A.P. as a surrogate family for your youth while you are at work. To receive further information concerning M.A.P. please email Lynell Kennedy or call her at 713.468.8356.
