The Recreation Academy

The Recreation Academy runs before-school, after-school and school-break enrichment programs across the St. Louis region, giving families dependable childcare coverage and giving kids something they actually look forward to. We partner directly with schools and community centers to bring in coaches, artists, engineers and educators who run hands-on programming on site, so parents never have to add another drive to their day. Our sessions are built around play, movement and creativity rather than worksheets, with small groups, familiar faces and staff trained to keep every child included. From multi-sport camps to STEM labs, cooking clubs and holiday break camps, every program is priced to stay reachable and scheduled around the real rhythm of a working family week.
