The week index

Sean Okafor posts this on the 2F door every Monday. Ages 5–17. No fee.

Homework desk

Tables on 2F after the bell. Tutors from Owen Grant’s list. Math first if the school packet says math. No phones on the desk.

Gym floor

Basement. Run, ball, mats. Indoor when January says so. Coaches, not chaos. Water on the bench.

Kitchen line

Hot dinner on school nights. Saturday two seatings. Kids can work a prep shift with a cook. Hairnets are not optional.

Arts

Paint, choir, a long sheet of paper on the floor when the weather allows a deck. The photo here is children painting a mural on wood planks — not our basement gym.

Maker labs

2F benches. Soldering only with a coach. Bike repair on Saturday. Tools go back on the shadow board.

Quiet rooms

3F. Reading hour. Pairs. A kid who had a rough bus ride can sit without a program name on it.
