After school program moved to October

 


DAYTON—The 2016-17 After School Program has been moved forward to an Oct. 4 start date, and it will run for seven weeks during the fall quarter, according to Peggy Guiterrez, Drug Free Grant Coordinator for the Coalition for Youth and Families.

The After School Program is being offered to third, fourth, fifth, and sixth graders in the Dayton School District, and will take place between from 3 to 4:30 p.m. on Tuesdays through Thursdays, she said.

Potential activities are cooking, gardening, art, photography, music, games, football, volleyball, baseball, basketball, soccer and softball.

The program had an original start date of September 20. The delay is due to the fact that a coordinator has only recently been identified.

Guiterrez said that Shakira Bye has been hired to coordinate the program, and that Bye is connecting with volunteers to determine what specific activities will be offered during the fall quarter.

Emailed registration packets will be sent from the school district to parents of third, fourth, fifth and sixth graders, and they can also be obtained at the school, Guiterrez said.

For further information about the After School Program contact Peggy Guiterrez at: 382-1511.
