EUREKA! STEAM After School Programs

EUREKA! has been leading after school programming in D51 schools for over a decade. Our programs have expanded to support out of school engagement and child care needs of Mesa County. After school programs include hand-on STEAM activities, school work support, structured recess time, in addition to healthy snacks.
