School Age Care (SAC) is a curriculum-based recreational program open to children from kindergarten to age twelve.
The program operates after school hours until 6 pm, as well as full days during school breaks and vacations, and provides support for children’s success in school.
School age children are encouraged to participate in a variety of activities – art, reading, computers, cooking, yoga, indoor/outdoor physical activities – that stimulate positive peer interactions. During the summer, children go on regular field trips to beaches, parks, and local amusements, and they can join clubs focused on such activities as movie-making, fishing, craftwork, gardening, and dance.
Our program offers many learning opportunities, including the implementation of an evidence-based anti-violence/anti-bullying curriculum. Our dedicated and caring staff provides a structured and nurturing environment, licensed by the Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care.

Pictured above are some children who proudly participate in the Pathways Green Team - and organizational-wide effort to ensure both staff and children are doing their part to keep the world clean!

Classroom teaching staff provide rich environments for creative art opportunities. Shown above is School Age Care child Tyla's painting of a true Gloucester symbol: a lobster!
