LITERACY
One of the goals for Open Arms Community Leaders is to combat community deterioration and low literacy levels to promote community advancement. We focus on reading/writing and financial literacy.
Reading/Writing Literacy
Students take courses that help them understand and communicate what they read and how to express themselves through writing.
Financial Literacy
Students learn and understand how to manage their finances. Courses equip students with the knowledge, skills and confidence to make responsible financial decisions.
MINDFULNESS
In a world where there is so much noise, students are taught to listen to their inner voice and find the stillness inside to drive their outcomes. Yoga and meditation are arts that bring students to a place of peace. Open Arms Community Leaders is doing it with a twist to engage children in appreciating different art forms to build self-esteem and become effective leaders. Children will learn these practices through music, games, and art. We focus on building student leaders through our 3 c's:
CREATIVITY
CONFIDENCE
CHARACTER
CREATIVE ARTS
Students are encouraged to express themselves through art, music, and poetry. Through our courses, they will have an improved understanding of self, a greater sense of confidence, and a shift in their mindset.
Art is critical to students’ overall development. Open Arms Community Leaders ensures that students gain a well-rounded education so they understand the essence of who they are in the world around them.
