the co-op
The Co-Op is our after-school program, held at Mann UCLA Community School from dismissal to 6 PM. The Co-Op also engages in outings and adventures during occasional weekends and school breaks. The Co-Op is designed around key development aspects, including social support and community building alongside academic encouragement. These factors have been proven to increase educational success, student wellness, capability, and confidence.

Members are encouraged to participate in actively planning their futures By utilizing an approach based on problem-solving, learning, and discovery, Members find their voices and begin to own their personal narrative.
