The Rochester After-School Academy (RASA) provides academic enrichment, recreational, social, artistic and character development activities for students and their families to help them succeed. There are currently 5 RASA sites (4 City and on at the Rochester School for the Deaf), with lead agencies delivering services to approximately 500 students and adults. By delivering these engaging enrichment activities in after school settings, we’re able to help students stay connected to school, thereby increasing school attendance and improving academic success.
