After School Program Volunteer

We are looking for volunteers to help at our After School program

The After School program has two main components. The first is homework help, as well as tutoring in reading and math. The second half of each day consists of enrichment activities designed to expose the children to new activities and topics. The children receive both a snack when they arrive and a meal after their homework and enrichment time. There are occasional field trips or other special activities.

After School Program/Days/Times:

This program is held after school every Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Friday 2:30pm-5:45pm.
