DC SCORES's Biography
DC SCORES’ holistic after school program helps students improve their fitness levels through soccer, develop self-expression through poetry and spoken word, and establish community connections through service learning. This is accomplished through an innovative model of hiring school day teachers and staff members as coaches after school, creating a positive school going experience and providing each student with direct access to a trusted mentor.
