LEAP Youth Development Program partners with the Effingham County Board of Education to provide quality after-school care at four Effingham County Elementary Schools. These programs focus on enhancing student's academic performance and personal development.


LEAP serves Guyton, Marlow, Rincon and Sandhill Elementary Schools during the school year as the on-site after-school care program. We also provide afterschool care for Blandford, Ebenezer and South Effingham Elementary schools at our LEAP Center located at Waterford Court in Rincon.


LEAP offers various learning enrichment activities that are specially designed to meet the needs of students 4-11 years old. We pride ourselves on the quality of the after-school education services we offer. Our partnership with these school helps strengthen our goal to foster high-quality youth education among the children in our community. Our programs provide academic support to their curriculum, giving your children a holistic approach to learning and development through content areas.
