RIO DEL MAR AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM RESUMES
Dear Parents,
Rio del Mar Elementary School's After
School Program will begin on Monday, August 26th. Our program will run from
2:05 – 4:25 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Wednesdays the program
will run until 2:10 p.m. The primary
purpose of this program is to help students with homework and provide
academic support/interventions for students that are falling behind grade level
standards and who may struggle with the CST testing.
The program will continue to consist
of an hour of tutorial/homework support for students in 2nd through
6th grades. If your child completes all of their homework they will
participate in an hour of enrichment activities to support student learning.
Students are to be honest regarding finishing their homework. If they fail to
be honest in this regard, they will lose fun enrichment class opportunities for
two weeks. Enrichment activities will consist of: Sports Leagues, Rock
Bands, Guitar, Cartooning, Legos, Computers, Piano, Chess, Ceramics, Arts and
Crafts, Actor's Theater, African Drumming, Games and possibly Choir. Rio’s
After School is an open enrollment program and this means that your child may
come any day we are in session.
*For those students who take the bus:
there will be a free after school bus that will pick up the students at 4:25
p.m. If you have questions about bus transportation problem/concern, please
call: 728-6324.
**Please remember to pick up your
child promptly each day at 4:25 p.m. and 2:10
on WEDNESDAYS After three late
pick-ups, your child will be required to take the free after school bus
home.
*There will be no after school program
on Fridays, or during Parent/Teacher Conferences in October. Snacks and drinks
will be provided each day. All-calls will be made to keep parents updated for
enrichment classes coming soon.
*When school begins, the suggested
donation is $250 to fund the program
Rio’s After School Program. This one-time donation for the school year pays for
a Reading Specialist, Math Specialist, staff, supplies, curriculum, books,
equipment, prizes and much more. This amount is a small sum compared to the
hundreds of dollars you would pay at other programs each month and without it,
after school will lose key parts of the program. Checks are preferred and
they should be made out to the RDM
Parent Alliance.
Cordially,
