- Enrichment clubs and activities — creative, hands-on programming that changes throughout the year
- Field trips and community partnerships — weekly excursions and special programs with local organizations such as the Mendocino Art Center, Noyo Marine Science Center, Noyo Food Forest, and CV Starr Aquatic Center
- A nutritious snack — provided daily in accordance with California state requirements
