Schedule

Text Box: Education Stations offers a wide variety of fun activities to appeal to each student’s interests and family’s schedule.  Many of the daily activities are based on the monthly theme (see activities).  Students will make use of school facilities such as the playground, library, gym/multipurpose room, computer lab/carts, and art/music room.

Program Options
After school programming takes place from 2:20-6:00pm in students’ own elementary schools.  Scheduling options allow students to stay some or all of the time/days programming is offered.  Students may register for 1-5 days weekly, until 3:15, 4:30 or 6:00pm.

Red Train: 		Free Play Only ~2:20-3:15
Blue Train: 	Free Play then Rotating Stations~2:20-4:30
Green Train:	Free Play, then Rotating Stations, then Extended Day ~2:20-6:00

Students are registered to attend on set days of the week, or on a drop-in basis.  Parents may establish different pick-up times for each set day, but the same schedule is followed weekly until notice of change is given.  Quick schedule changes may be accommodated on a drop-in basis, if staffing allows.  

A 2-week change of schedule is requested to ensure new schedules can be accommodated on a regular basis.  Changes will be granted as possible with less notice.  Students may only attend (both drop-in and weekly schedules) after being formally registered with the program.
