Middle School Program
The Middle School Experience
At Boys & Girls Club of Pasadena, we believe Middle Schoolers need positive role models and experiences to help them pursue greatness. Our focus is to expose members to a variety of programs and opportunities that they may not get anywhere else.
BGCP works hard to ensure our 6th-8th graders (aprox. ages 11-14) are ready for high school. Middle Schoolers have programs designed just for them, focused on healthy choice-making, goal setting, leadership, community service, and more!
