The main focus of the JBC is to provide affordable opportunities in music, performing arts, and STEAM. In 2010, The JBC started offering afterschool programs Monday through Friday, which include: Floyd JAMS (Junior Appalachian Musicians), Lego Club, Robotics Club, Blue Ridge Strings, Computer Club, Acting Out!, Musical Theatre for Teens, and Improv. These programs cover a variety of interests such as old-time music, classical music, engineering, coding, theatre, dance, and musical theatre. In 2022 two more programs were created: Junior Engineers and Acting Up. These two programs occur in the spring semester in place of Robotics Club and Improv.

​

These programs are offered in 12 week sessions, one in fall, beginning in September and ending in December, and one in spring, beginning in January and ending in May. Every class is priced at $200 for each 12 week session. Please see Tuition for more information on our reduced tuition and discounts.

​

The public school system recognizes the difference made by the JBC and has shown their support by providing county-wide transportation from public schools to our programs. Students also receive a snack during their programs, which is made available through Feeding Southwest Virginia.
