Different After School Club This Year Due to budget constraints and the loss of some funding for our after-school program, we will not be having the same program this year. We will be having an extended day program, which will be academically focused on reading and mathematics with individual learning plans for the students. Students will be referred to the program for assistance in areas where we can help them develop the skills and concepts needed to meet their needs. Any student can attend the extended day program and will not be turned away. The program will assist and enrich all students that attend. Individual learning programs will be developed for each student. Thank you. -R.J. Kost
