About Us

We believe that children and families have the right to participate in after-school programs that support their beliefs, values, and goals.

Our Mission

Empowering happy kids with skills for life

Our Beliefs

SHADES of Development believes that children learn and grow with every interaction they encounter during their waking hours of the day. Afterschool time is a time to enhance learning, promote relationship building, and exercise conflict resolution techniques in a relaxed, nurturing and fun environment. The SHADES Afterschool program bridges the school day and home life. SHADES further believes that it is essential to create an environment of mutual respect where adults and children can share, laugh, and learn together by setting goals, communicating, developing trust and holding ourselves and each other accountable.

Our Vision

Our vision is to provide Safe, Healthy, Adventures that Develop Essential Skills for lifelong learning and success for all children in need of out-of-school time services.

Our Constitution: I Refuse to Be Less

Based on Integrity, Respect, Teamwork, Balance and Leadership

Our first afterschool site was at Powell Elementary School established in 1995. Since then SHADES has grown to 14 afterschool locations.
