Purpose
Our Program is designed to provide children with a safe environment that enhances social and emotional development in a nurturing atmosphere of fun and creativity. Our school-based program is a natural continuation of the child's day to benefit the parent, child and community.

Before School Program (7:30 am until the school day begins)
Each child attending the Before School Program will participate in a safe, friendly environment that will provide choices in a low-key, quiet beginning of the day activities such as:

  Drawing books
Simple craft projects
Homework review

Hand-held games
Storytelling
Paper/pencil games

Card/table games
Puzzles
Reading
  

After School Program (3:15 - 6:00 pm)
Each child attending the After School Program will participate in flexible, varied schedule activities such as:

  "Cool-off"/"warm-up" activities
"Supervised" homework times
Sport games
Group recreational activities
K'nex/Lego building activities
Visits
"Self-help" activities

Daily snack and drink
Show and tell
Arts and crafts
Computer games
Free (social/quiet) time
Talks and demos

 
  (e.g., fundamental first aid, social problem solving)

It should be understood that Homework Review and Homework Time do not replace a regularly established study and homework time when parents can review school assignments with their child.
