About Our Enrichment Program

After School Enrichment Program

 

Goshen Multicultural Academy’s After School Enrichment Program is offered to primary students in grades Kindergarten through 8th grade. During our enrichment program these students will have an opportunity to gain an adequate foundation for learning to read and write effectively. In addition through programs such as Pathfinders & Adventurers, students will gain the opportunity to encounter Christ and learn to build a loving and meaningful relationship with him.

 

Our program provides instruction that can lead to reading fluency, expanded vocabulary, math literacy, utilization of phonics, and poetry and reading for pleasure. 

 

Individual instruction, small group activities, and field trips, are incorporated into the highly interactive learning environment. 

 

Our Academic & Recreation program offers a unique opportunity for the students to experience success 5 days a week.

 

Our Mission

 

GMA’s Mission

Our mission is to provide opportunities for achievement in academics, performing arts, and athletics in a fun, Christ-Centered environment.

 

Our Purpose

 

Our Purpose

Since the COVID-19 (Caronavirus) Pandemic, students have fallen behind in their academics, vocational education, and social interations. Time after school is a significant period of time when youth have an opportunity to learn and further develop outside of the classroom. Especially for urban youth, this time can be some of the most critical of their lives. 

 

Goshen Multicultural Academy provides a safe, positive environment where children can develop self-confidence and social skills, build lasting relationships with peers and counselors, work to improve their grasp of core academic disciplines, increase their level of physical fitness, and explore their creativity – all while promoting the fun and freedom that define what summer means to us all. 

 

Our enrichment program emphasizes academic enrichment in literacy, math and science, dance, ballet, art, music, and vocational sports as well as social and most importantly spiritual development.

 

Goshen Multicultural Academy serves children from Kindergarten through 8th grade. Our after school program involves intensive learning through group instruction and through our many strategic educational and recreational partners.

Behavior Guidelines & Expectations

 

Please read our Rules & Behavior Policy with your child before programing. We expect students to act respectfully at all times when they are on our property or participating in our programs. Students are to behave in a mature, responsible way and respect the rights and dignity of others. Interactions will reflect the Goshen Multicultural Academy Four Core Values:

  • Students take Responsibility for their actions.
  • Students Respect themselves, each other, GMA equipment and the environment.
  • Honesty will be the basis for all relationships and interactions.
  • Students will be caring in their relationships with others.

 

Goshen Multicultural Academy Rules

Bullying Policy

At Students, bullying is inexcusable, and we have a firm policy against all types of bullying. Each student is expected to treat all other students with respect, and to help each other achieve the best possible experience. If a student has difficulty meeting this expectation, parents may be called upon to assist.

 

Our leadership addresses all incidents of bullying seriously and trains staff to promote communication with their staff and their campers. 

 

We work together as a team to ensure that campers gain self-confidence, make new friends, and go home with their camp experience.

 

 

Discipline Procedures

When a student does not follow the behavior guidelines, we will take the following action steps as behavior problems progress.

  1. Staff will redirect the student to more appropriate behavior.
  2. If inappropriate behavior continues, the student will be reminded of behavior guidelines and camp rules, and the student will be asked to decide on action steps to correct his/her behavior.
  3. If a student’s behavior still does not meet expectations and is affecting the experience of other students, he/she will be referred to a member of the Administration (Program Directors, Lead Staff).
  4. If inappropriate behavior continues, as a final action step the camper may be dismissed from the program (see refund disclaimer below)

 

Examples of unacceptable behavior:

  • Refusing to follow behavior guidelines or GMA rules
  • Using profanity, vulgarity or obscenity
  • Stealing or damaging property (personal or GMA property)
  • Refusal to participate in activities or cooperate with staff
  • Disrupting a program
