Queens Public Library developed STACKS to enhance your child’s learning experiences through age-appropriate activities in a safe and welcoming environment that helps school-age children build their social, emotional, and academic skills.
STACKS is an educational enrichment program for children, grades K-5, and operates during the school year Monday through Friday from 3pm to 5:30 pm virtually and in person at select locations. It offers children structured and unstructured programming.
Each session begins with homework help, facilitated by trained and caring staff. Following homework help sessions, children participate in a variety of enrichment activities and projects which are informative, hands-on, fun, and often complements school curriculum, using all the resources Queens Public Library has to offer–for free.
This year, virtual programs will continue along with the return of in-person programming. The locations listed below are offering in-person programming this Fall. To enroll your child, please visit your preferred location on Mondays-Fridays from 3pm-5:30pm to fill out an enrollment form.
