Central Perk Hangout is an after school club where kids can talk to teachers and other students about their classes, teachers, workload, etc. Teachers and students collaborate on what they like about school in hopes of helping those who've lost interest gain it back. Veteran teachers assist newer teachers with strategies to ensure 100% engagement with their students.

To help get the students excited about Central Perk Hangout, we partnered with Chick Fila. They provide dinner (free of charge) to the students on our weekly club night. In return, we post about their assistance with our club on our school social media pages (FB, IG, and Twitter) as well as our personal pages.
