A Charter School System of the State of Georgia

YES (Youth Enrichment Services) is a collaborative project between Georgia College, Baldwin County Schools and the Baldwin community. The Program is funded by the Georgia Department of Education and is an extension of Nita M. Lowey 21st Century Community Learning Centers.

YES offers an opportunity to further engage students in academic, social, and physical activities beyond school hours. Proven to have a positive effect on student achievement, YES incorporates both academic and enrichment activities. During the academic year, students participate in homework sessions, language arts, math, science, art, technology, physical activities, and more. Each summer, the YES Program offers a 4 week program with high impact summer science explorations designed to encourage students to become curious learners. During the academic year and summer, the Program partners with the Baldwin Board of Education Nutrition Department to provide a nutritious snack /meal each day.

​

All sessions (academic year and summer) provide a safe and caring environment, small class sizes (10:1 student-to-teacher ratio), and afterschool activities aligned with the Georgia Afterschool and Youth Development Quality Standards (ASYD). The YES Program and staff promote student accountability, responsibility, and dependability, habits consistent with success throughout life.
