About Us
Glen Cove Boys & Girls Club at Lincoln House is the leading advocate for youth and an essential after school service for the Glen Cove community since 1903. We provide members with a healthy balance of learning and play, well beyond the school curriculum, where children and teens, ages 6 – 18, are encouraged to explore and discover the world around them in a fun, positive and nurturing environment.
Mission
To provide a safe and caring environment that will inspire and enable all young people to realize their full potential as productive and responsible citizens.
We have been fostering the value of education as a crucial path to a successful life since 1903, providing life enhancing programs and character and leadership development experiences encouraging academic success, constructive behavior, and positive social interaction. Our kids are on track to graduate and pursue post high school education while taking charge of their own well-being.
Our Programs fall within five Core Areas:
✵ Education and Career Development
✵ The Arts
✵ Health and Life Skills
✵ Character and Leadership Development
✵ Sports, Fitness and Recreation
Our curriculum is results oriented to ensure members are achieving the following goals:
✵ Becoming self-disciplined and self-directed learners
✵ Developing academic motivation, strong work, and study habits
✵ Improving academic performance and increasing standardized math and reading scores
✵ Improving academic, behavioral, and social attitude
✵ Developing strong organization skills – time management, and ability to prioritize tasks
✵ Developing a healthy attitude of personal responsibility
✵ Understanding the consequences of failing to meet obligations
✵ Interacting with peers and staff in a positive and supportive manner
✵ Respecting themselves, their peers, and their community
We believe children are the architects of their futures and with determination, perseverance and trust in themselves, they can achieve the future they aspire to achieve.
