CAN’s mission is to provide enrichment to students in grades 6 through 8 to extend their success in school by engaging in a summer and academic year program filled with fun and challenging activities. Our program has been developed to: 

• Provide students with enhanced opportunities to supplement their academic knowledge and skills for success in middle and high school.
• Support strong ethical foundations through character education.
• Build confidence and leadership through team building and personal development activities.
• Inspire joy in learning.

Students form new friendships and make connections with dedicated educators who serve as positive role models and mentors even after the program concludes.

CAN partners with rural school districts to support student growth and learning, especially during the summer months. The program’s objective is to position students to return to school in the fall empowered and motivated to start the year with enthusiasm and strengthened skills.
