USI is an out-of-school time program for 1st-4th graders at Lakeland Elementary Middle School, created with two things in mind: students' academic and personal growth. UMBC is one of twenty-two recipients of the 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) Grant Program. View the recent Maryland State Department of Education's Press Release.

Lakeland Elementary Middle School is located in South Baltimore, 15 minutes from UMBC. Transportation to the site is provided.
UMBC students work with Lakeland teachers and staff to deliver engaging educational activities:
