Beacon Program
After-school and community programs at I.S. 93, operated by the Greater Ridgewood Youth Council (GRYC).
Operated by the Greater Ridgewood Youth Council (GRYC), our Beacon program's mission is to provide a safe haven for children of the community. Located in I.S. 93, the Beacon enhances the educational experience of the school day by concentrating not only on academics but also on students' social development. Working closely with I.S. 93, our goal is to enrich the lives of each participant by providing a plethora of activities that build empowerment and skills and integrate family and community support.
The Beacon also serves the community's adult population with classes and events that benefit their daily lives.
