I am looking for suggestions for 2013-14 after school enrichment programs. Wondering if there are tutors or small group activities for elementary school students that help them achieve their full potential. Ideas?

Boys & Girls Club of the Emerald Coast. Great program and this summer, they will be opening their new building.

Great suggestion! It is really too bad we have gotten to the point where our youth cannot work at odd jobs in the summer. I was 11 when I started cutting lawns. I learned a lot from my customers but more importantly, I soon learned the value of a dollar. This type of education is completely lacking in today's society.

Agree Andy. Started my paper route at 10 yo. Mine is only 7. Will cut him some slack for the next 3 years.

WaltonParent, I may be misreading you but I think you are being sarcastic toward what I posted. How anyone raises their kids are their business. I, BTW, hated my father for many of the things he made me do at the time. It was only later that I realized how right he was. It is a moot point, anyway, as youth now days can't work at an early age. We might harm their delicate psyche by exposing them to the real world.

Andy, was not being sarcastic. I did start a paper route at 10. The post said since my son is only 7, he has 3 more years before he starts working. Sorry if you misinterpreted.
