La Clase Mágica (LCM) — a collaborative, multi-generational, after-school learning, wellness and family strengthening program — is building new partnerships and expanding at a new location on the campus of Earl Warren Middle School. Twice-a-week tutoring sessions are housed in The Cove, a spacious, multipurpose room adjoining the Solana Beach Library, which also occupies the middle school campus.

Staffed by the Partners at Learning (PAL) program at UC San Diego and volunteer homework helpers, La Clase Mágica gets students excited about academics. In addition to homework help, sessions include wellness, art and cultural projects. Some homework helpers are retired professionals. Others include high school students from Westview High School, who share their technology skills to train students in robotics and writing code.

The move to The Cove in fall 2022 has opened the door to new partnerships with San Dieguito Union High School District, Solana Beach Library and the Friends of the Solana Beach Library. New programming engages families and promotes the library as a safe space to acquire information, borrow materials and participate in activities.
La Clase Mágica was founded over thirty years ago by Dr. Olga Vasquez, Professor Emeritus at UC San Diego, and today is part of the prestigious UC Links network administered by the Graduate School of Education at UC Berkeley.
LCM links all members of the education system (administrators, teachers, university students) with parents and community members to establish a clear pathway for eligible individuals to move into higher education.
