Our late founder, Mr. Tom Lewis, began The Fishing School to change the lives of students growing up in under-resourced communities. For over 31 years, we’ve done exactly that.
Every day, we give students a safe environment where they can learn and grow.

We work hard to prepare students for success in middle school, high school, and beyond. The Office of the State Superintendent of Education ranked our programs 1st in math and 2nd in reading in their most recent evaluation assessing 24 out-of-school time providers.
We keep kids safe and learning after the school bell rings. Participation in afterschool programs is proven to increase academic performance, improve behavior, and keep students safe and engaged during times when they are more likely to get involved with juvenile crime.
Our summer program offers full-day learning and enrichment featuring clubs, technology, college readiness classes, and more, all at no-cost to participants. The goal is to help students maintain and grow the skills they learned the year prior while preparing for the year ahead.
Parents play a huge role in student success. Students perform better in school when they have the support of an active parent or guardian. We offer parent engagement events throughout the year, giving parents an opportunity to further impact students’ growth and performance.
