Merced Academy of Rising Scholars (MARS)

The Merced Academy of Rising Scholars (M.A.R.S.) provides enrichment programs during afterschool, summer and intersession times for students from transitional kindergarten (TK) to 6th grade. Our mission is to provide academic, social, emotional, programming that supports student needs and interests through hands-on, engaging learning experiences. Expanded learning programs are pupil-centered, results driven, include community partners, and complement, but do not replicate, learning activities in the regular school day and school year.
