Our Mission
As part of the Franklin County 21st Century Community Learning Centers Community Education initiative, Tharptown’s program promotes lifelong learning for students and families. By incorporating technology, the arts, and career-technical activities, we aim to improve academic performance while fostering meaningful connections between students, families, and the community.
