Funded by the U.S. Department of Education, the 21st Century Community Learning Center provides academic enrichment opportunities during non-school hours for children at Mt. Washington Elementary and Academy of World Languages.

The after school program, Castle Connections, helps students meet state and local standards in core academic subjects, such as reading and math; offers students a broad array of enrichment activities that complement their regular academic programs and offers resources and other educational services to the families of participating children.
