Parents across Kansas City, MO, Lee's Summit, Independence, Liberty want something better than an hour of screens after school. Most schools want to offer it but don't have the staff, budget or time to build it.
Outside vendors often hand the work back to your office: collecting forms, chasing payments, answering parent emails.
- No budget for extra programming
- Teachers already stretched thin
- Front office stuck handling sign-ups
- Clubs that are supervision, not learning
We run it. You get the credit.
We plan and staff weekly enrichment clubs inside your building. Students pick the clubs they love, coaches follow a written plan every week, and we handle every family-facing task.
$0 cost to your school
Families register and pay us directly. Your office never handles forms, money or refunds.
Everything brought in
Coaches, equipment, curriculum and supplies arrive with us and leave with us.
Vetted, trained staff
FBI fingerprinting, background checks and CPR/First Aid certification for every coach.
1:14 target ratio
Small groups, grouped by age, so kids are coached instead of just supervised.
Built around your bell
Scheduled around your building and the Missouri-side district calendars.
One point of contact
A local lead your principal can actually call — no ticket queue.
Vetted by the people who know what to look for.
Three steps. That's it.

Registration, payments, waivers, coaching and parent questions — all on us.
Clubs students actually choose.

Two ways this goes.
Without a partner
- Families keep asking and the answer stays "not this year"
- Staff stretched thin covering extra duties
- Empty gym after the bell
- Front office stuck handling sign-ups and money
With The Recreation Academy
- A program families brag about to other families
- Zero added work or cost for your staff
- Vetted coaches running a real curriculum
- A partner your principal can call directly

Launching after school enrichment clubs in Missouri-side Kansas City
We already run after school enrichment clubs in St. Louis, Nashville and Medford. Kansas City is next once we confirm a Missouri-side host, and we're focusing there so we can serve that first school well from day one.
Our Kansas City clubs meet once a week right after dismissal for multi-week sessions. Each club follows a coach-written plan with a clear skill goal, plus a debrief that builds teamwork and confidence.
Missouri-side areas we're considering
- Kansas City, MO
- Lee's Summit
- Independence
- Liberty
- Blue Springs
- Raytown
- Grandview
- Gladstone
