SUPPER
Per grant guidelines, district policy, and/or BACR policy, students will be provided a healthy snack and/or supper daily. Students can reject the daily snack offered during the time it is dispensed, but students may not be able to receive the snack at a later time.
Please let us know immediately if your student has any food allergies or cannot eat certain
foods for cultural reasons in addition to writing it on their health forms. Adults are not allowed to eat or take the food designated for students and food is not to leave the designated snack and/or supper area. Students are not permitted to eat/drink soda, candy, or junk food during the program. If you are going to send an additional snack with your student, please send a healthy one.
ACADEMIC SKILL PRACTICE
During each program day, academic skill practice is offered to all participants. This period is 30-60 minutes long and may take
place anytime during the program. Please refer to the program schedule to see what academic assistance looks like at your school. During this time, the staff is not always available to assist students individually, so we encourage parents to check and support completion at home. We ask all students to bring a book or supplemental academic activity. If a student does not have homework in a particular class or a supplemental activity
of their own, staff have additional resources to help students with core academic areas.
Students are expected to bring ALL homework, books, and materials to their academic
session, where applicable.
ENRICHMENT ACTIVITIES
Each student will have the opportunity to participate in enrichment activities. Activities may include visual arts and crafts, cooking, theater, music, movie making, team building, social-emotional-based activities, leadership development, or other enrichment workshops based on interest, resources, and student needs.
ACADEMIC ENRICHMENT ACTIVITIES
Each student will have the opportunity to participate in academic-based activities such as STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math) creative writing, middle school/high school prep, learning a new language, journalism, world exploration, college and career exploration, etc. These classes incorporate academic learning principles within highly engaging, meaningful, project- based activities. Students develop a love of learning and academic rigor.
SPORTS AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES
All programs provide structured physical activities, which may include: organized sports, outdoor team-building activities, and structured recess activities. If your student has limited mobility or other health concerns, please communicate this immediately to the site
coordinator.
