YouthLearn Goes Back to School to Help New MA Charter

New Bedford Youth How does a new school offer afterschool programming? What aspects of an afterschool program are key to ensuring success? What role can and will technology play? These and other questions were the focus of a new pilot project YouthLearn is implementing in Massachusetts, YouthLearn's headquarters. The New Bedford Global Learning Charter School began operation in the 2002-03 school year, providing a technology-enriched, hands-on curriculum to 250 young people in the 6th, 7th and 8th grades.
