Red Shield Academy

After School Youth Center  

This program is an afterschool program when school is in session. The goal of the program is to impact each child's life in different important areas. We have electives in music, bible education, physical education, and tutoring for students' homework. In addition, we serve dinner to those attending. We launched this program because we understand the importance of our youth and teens and that they are the future. We want to make a difference and help give the youth a hand up as they grow into adulthood. We currently only serve the Cedar Hall students. If you have a student(s), aged K-8th grade please reach out to our youth director Megan Potts, about getting them signed up. megan.potts@usc.salvationarmy.org
