Recreational, Arts, and Educational Programs The Youth Center offers a variety of programs designed to inspire creativity, build skills, and support youth development. Our after-school music program is conducted in partnership with the Los Alamitos Unified School District and provides string and band instruction to public, home, and independent school students in grades K through 5. After one year of instruction, students in grades 1 through 5 may participate in the elementary string ensemble or jazz band. More than 250 students participate annually, and no child is turned away due to an inability to pay. Saturday classes are also offered to expand access and enrichment opportunities. The Leadership Academy serves 30 students each year and focuses on building essential life skills, including goal setting, cooking, banking, car insurance and maintenance, career readiness, and healthy living. Our Girls in STEM program is designed for elementary school students, with a focus on empowering girls in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Through hands-on workshops, mentorship, and leadership activities, participants develop confidence, teamwork, and problem-solving skills. This program helps break down barriers, inspire future innovators, and promote a more diverse and inclusive STEM workforce.
