After School and Summer Programs that Build the Skills to Succeed in SCHOOL, WORK, and LIFE!
MISSION
The Arts, Sports, and Technology Resource Organization (ASTRO) is a non-profit organization dedicated to offering inclusive programs that foster athletic development, social-emotional intelligence, and critical thinking skills which empower individuals of all ages and backgrounds to succeed in school, work and life.
VISION
To continuously innovate by developing new programs and offerings based on our successful hands-on learning approach combined with our dedication to social emotional development to become a model for others to utilize nationally.
STRATEGY
Data-driven analysis guides continuous refinement of operations through strategic planning and execution to meet the demands of our community members.
For the last 11 years, ASTRO® has been innovating programming for afterschool childcare,
enrichment programs and vocational services by making learning hands on. This kind of
experiential learning is more effective than traditional approaches. Our results speak for
themselves.
For example, in our ASTRO® Academy after school and summer programs for children ages 5 to
13, we emphasize the development of social emotional skills because we believe that these
skills are fundamental to learning and successful academic achievement which enables each
person to reach their full potential. ASTRO® Academy goes far beyond providing a safe place for
children, with transportation, meals and homework help by providing learning opportunities in
STEAM subjects, Art, Music, and athletic development. Our programs help our participants
develop the skills to succeed in school, work and life.
Because this programming is much more expensive to provide, we need your help by providing
donations to help us cover our costs. Click here to donate now. The children of Pawtucket,
Central Falls and Providence County thank you.
