Pre-Primary + Primary School After Care
The goal of After Care is to provide a safe, caring, and enjoyable atmosphere for children, where they can play, make choices, and hone social skills under the guidance of caring adults. Participants have opportunities to engage in a variety of indoor and outdoor games, and activities that take advantage of mixed-age groupings. A healthy snack is provided. Children who have homework are provided with a supervised quiet room to complete their assignments. There is quiet time for K-1 students, 30 minutes of reading for students in 2nd-5th grades, as well as homework help from an After Care staff person. -
Middle School After Care
The After Care program for Middle School students is a homework club where students can complete homework in a quiet environment with peer assistance or adult help, as needed. A healthy snack is served upon arrival. Snack is followed by a brief period of down time with friends before beginning homework. -
