The mission of the Harriet Tubman PTO Aftercare program is to encourage children to be successful by providing them with a caring and enriching atmosphere that will promote their academic and social development. The organization goes beyond simple childcare and provides meaningful and enriching before- and after- school programs for children. The programs offered are neighborhood-based and academically enriched. Harriet Tubman PTO Aftercare, Inc. strives to create an environment that will allow children to grow socially and academically by nurturing their minds, bodies and spirits through programs that incorporate independent learning and enrichment activities. Opportunities are designed to purposefully enhance the social, academic, and self-esteem levels of participants. The Harriet Tubman PTO Aftercare program is committed to providing the stimulus for students to achieve their maximum physical and creative potential by developing respect for themselves and others, having and displaying self- confidence, and being responsible for their behaviors and actions.
