Our late founder, Mr. Tom Lewis, began The Fishing School to change the lives of students growing up in under-resourced communities. For over 30 years, we’ve done exactly that.
Every day, we give students a safe environment where they can learn and grow.

We deliver STEAM-focused afterschool and summer programs integrating the power of STEM and the Arts, and fostering a nurturing environment, where every child can develop the skills and knowledge to succeed in the future of work.
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 time for learning, enrichment 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.
Families and caregivers 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.
