Both hailing from Panama City, FL have be living in the beautiful community of Douglasville, GA since 2017. While both being established in the their respected healthcare fields as Licensed Occupational Therapy Assistant and a Clinical Mental Therapist/ Social Worker; they both wanted more their community.
While having our own teenager, we've noticed the lack of attention needed toward the adolescent group in our community. Currently the adolescent group lack anything posiitive and productive to do through out the community that isnt quickly observed as rambunctious or disorderly. When truth be told we've all been in that "Gap" trying to find things to do at the adolescent age.
The Problem:
The final school bell rings, but for many teens, the most challenging part of the day begins. The hours from 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM, known as the "after-school gap," and weekend evenings present significant community challenges:
●Unsupervised Risks
●Nowhere to Go
●Academic Needs vs. Environment
●The Post-Game Problem
The Solution:
5th Period is the definitive answer. We provide a multi-faceted space that is both a sanctuary and a springboard, operating as a membership-based lounge with the following core "subjects":
●The Arcade (Electives)
●The Library (Study Hall)
●The Boardroom (Entrepreneurship 101)
●The Commons (Friday Night Lights Vibe)
