We’re only a week and a half into the new school year, and already, The Club is FULL of energy! 💙

Our kids are settling back in, friendships are growing, and most importantly, our programming is going strong.

From homework help and STEM to health and wellness, leadership, sports, the arts and workforce readiness, our days are about so much more than filling the hours after school. They’re about giving kids a safe place to belong, caring adults in their corner, and opportunities to learn, grow and discover what they’re capable of.

We’re just getting started, and we are SO excited about what this school year has in store.

Great Futures start here, and they’re already in motion. 💙

Happy birthday to our amazing Director of Operations! She pours so much time, care and encouragement into our staff so they can continue pouring into our kids each day. We are incredibly grateful for her leadership, her heart and everything she does for our Club. Help us wish her a very happy birthday!

📢Eugene Fields Families

Currently, Eugene Field is without a direct phone to contact them. Please call Joplin at 417-623-8072, ask for Admin and we will get the message to staff.

We understand this is not ideal and are working hard to rectify the situation. Thank you for your patience

📢ATTN: Club Families

Starting tomorrow there will be a 20-30 min delay in picking up kids from school due to our bus driver being on vacation. Which will cause them to arrive at the club a little later than normal.

We apologize for any inconvience!

Wishing all of our Club kids, families, teachers and school staff a GREAT first day back to school!

There’s something special about the first day. New classrooms, new teachers, new friends and a whole new year of possibilities ahead.

To our Club kids, we hope you walk through those doors knowing there are so many people cheering you on. We can’t wait to hear about your first day and be there for all the big wins, hard days and everything in between.

Here’s to a school year filled with learning, growing, laughter and lots of great memories. Have an amazing first day!
