Sara Gabbard April 28, 2022 Edge News

West Chester, OH – (April 18, 2022) – EDGE Teen Center and MidPointe Library System are collaborating to provide after-school programming for Lakota West teens five days a week for the 2022/23 school year. 

“EDGE@West,” as it has come to be known, has been providing teens with safe and productive programming at the Library on Centre Pointe Drive since the fall of 2021. In a response to the popularity of the program, it grew from one to two days in the winter. Students participate in activities in the Library community room.

For the upcoming school year, EDGE plans to provide: tutoring, group mental health counseling with Focus on Youth, post graduation education planning, yoga, prevention education, employment skills, community service opportunities and more. 

“It has always been our goal to provide the entire district with meaningful after school programming specifically designed for high schoolers.  We are thrilled to be collaborating with MidPointe to meet the needs of local teenagers,” says Sara Gabbard, Executive Director of EDGE.

“Our partnership is a win/win for both organizations and the community as well,” said Travis Bautz, MidPointe Library System Executive Director. “Providing space and resources for the exceptional services EDGE provides is directly aligned with MidPointe’s mission and vision.”
