“Power Hour
The first hour of every day is devoted to completing homework. Staff assist our members with homework and preparing for tests. Parents get to spend a stress free evening with their kids.
Virtues
Every week we discuss a new virtue and how our members can apply it in their daily lives at the club, school, and home. It is reinforced throughout the week as the kids work and play at the club.
Diversity
Each week we talk about diversity, talking about differences in cultures and beliefs around the world and in our own community. A favorite topic is the different ways our own members celebrate different holidays, their traditions and foods.
Healthy Habits
We encourage healthy foods by providing free healthy snacks every day. Organized and free play games promotes exercise and healthy bodies. Age appropriate discussions covering topics from personal hygiene to drug and alcohol use make the kids aware that they are responsible for their own bodies.”
“The AYS “Share-A-Stand” program brings orchestra members to Markham Middle School in Watts, Robert Frost Middle School in Granada Hills, and Griffith Steam Magnet Middle School in East Los Angeles, mentoring 300 music students. Over the course of a school year, AYS musicians conduct master classes, lead sectionals, rehearse side-by-side with the students, and hold Q&A sessions where the students can ask about their lives as young musicians. The program includes bus transportation and tickets for students, their families/guardians, and music teachers to attend two AYS concerts; the field trips will both reinforce classroom instruction and provide students with new experiences—for many of the students this will be the first time they have seen a live performance, let alone a performance by professional artists in world-class venues. The year culminates in a combined concert of AYS musicians and each school’s students for the entire school in May.”
