Grow with us

Adventures in learning is the main program offered for our participants. Classes are offered in a variety of subjects, in eight-week sessions three times a year. Instructors are community leaders and university professors who volunteer their time to teach classes. The Shepherd's Center also hosts other social events, including spelling bees and day trips around Kansas.
