After-School All-Stars is a program that provides comprehensive after school programs that are fun for kids and also keep them safe and help them achieve success in school and life. It prepares middle school kids for high school, college, and the 21st century by offering academic support, enrichment opportunities, and health/fitness activities. This program takes place during the hours of 3:00-6:00 p.m., five days a week.

The purpose of After-School All-Stars is to keep kids away from drugs, gangs, and violence, as the hours that the program takes place are critical hours in which kids are vulnerable to getting into trouble. Because the program targets inner city kids who are otherwise unable to afford a first-class after-school program like this one, this program is free for all participants, as it is made possible by donations from foundations and corporate sponsors.

The Summer Academy

During the summertime of 2009, participants of After-School All-Stars participated in a 7-week extension of the program that took place from the hours of 8:00-4:00 p.m., from Monday to Friday. Atlanta Public Schools provided their buses for transportation of the kids from their neighborhoods to the schools.
