Introduction:	The Before/After-School Friends Program offers a safe, fun and relaxed atmosphere for children at the end of the school day. The program is for children whose parents want them to join special activities in a peer setting, or are unable to care for them after school. The program begins at the close of school at Southeast and Vinton locations or Community Center participants are bused from their schools daily. The program concludes at 6 p.m. each day. All children are offered daily snacks and beverages upon arrival to the program. The Before/After-School Friends Program designs activities to provide children with experiences that enhance physical, emotional and social growth. Children not only develop peer relationships but also develop a connection with the staff who is sensitive to their needs and interests. Children learn to resolve conflicts and develop social skills needed for successful group interaction in future settings. The Before/After-School Friends Program consists of options based on each child’s interests, wants and needs. The weekly schedule can include activities such as arts and crafts, performing arts, sports, outdoor exploration, creative group games and special themed events. We encourage the children and staff to be involved in planning together. The Before/After-School Friends Program recognizes individuality in all children as well as their need to identify with a group to experience a sense of belonging. We encourage cooperation between all participants at our program. We feel daily communication with parents and staff is important to keep you up to date on how your child is doing with Before/After School Friends.
