The Neighborhood Schoolhouse (NSH) is a community-based learning and family support center at Redmond Elementary School. It is a gathering place where neighbors can experience lifelong learning and get connected to vital community resources.
Families and children participate in a wide variety of fun, educational activities, including Family Fun Nights, tennis programs, family dinners, art and science activities, parenting classes, and more. Activities are available before and after school, six days a week during the school year. To accommodate parents’ work schedules, parenting classes and family activities are offered in the evening.
In the 2006/07 school year, NSH served more than 600 people–46% of whom were from schools other than Redmond Elementary. Approximately 140 children participate weekly in the NSH after-school programs.
Ages served: Students from Redmond Elementary School and other local schools (grades K-6) and their families.
Requirements: Classes are open to the public on a first-come, first-served basis. Reduced-tuition scholarships are available to low-income families. Full scholarships are available if the family either qualifies for free or reduced breakfast/lunch program; has a Public Assistance Medical Card; or is an unemployed, single-parent household.
