Kids Connection offers an After School Program for children who need supervised care before school begins or between the end of the school day and 6:00pm. After school at KC is not just supervised free play. The afternoons are constructive and creative. Students also have a period of time for studying and doing homework. Students are supervised by counselors. All counselors, as with any Kids Connection employee, are background checked and CPR certified. The ratio of students to counselors does not exceed 10:1.
Activities: Students will be completing hands-on STEAM activities that enhance their techniques and creativity! Counselors will be having a variety of engaging activities planned for the students each day in which they can complete independently from a distance.
Group Games: Students will be playing games within their after-school groups that don’t require them getting out of their seats, and will still allow them to have fun from a distance! They will get the opportunity to test a wide range of their skills through these exciting games. Some of these games include, but are not limited to, Jeopardy, Chief, and Spot the Difference.
Skill Building: During the first couple months of school, students will be getting the chance to enhance their spelling, counting, and fine motor skills through hands-on learning.
Book Club: Students can bring in their own books that they’ve been reading and will have the opportunity to share with the other students in their groups. This is a chance for them to recommend engaging readings to their peers and hear about others that they may be interested in. It’s also a great opportunity for practicing communication and public speaking.
When the school day ends, students enrolled in the After School Program transition directly into their schedule of activities. Parents may pick up their child at the sign-out lobby at any time in the afternoon. Please make sure that you sign your child out at the kiosk. Children are to be picked up by or before 6:00pm (3:00pm for early dismissal Kindergarteners). If your child is not picked up by 6:00pm, you will be charged $1.00 for every minute past 6:00pm that you are late picking up your child.
The After School Program is provided for an additional fee over tuition. Fees for these programs are paid on a monthly basis and are incorporated along with the tuition payment. Students can participate in these programs as best fits their needs. Please see pricing details in our Tuition/Fees section.
Before School Care begins at 7:00am. Students who participate in the After School Program are included in the Before School Care Program at no additional cost.
Enrichment Classes
Each semester Kids Connection offers a variety of Enrichment classes to enhance your child’s after school experience. It’s the perfect opportunity for your child to try a new activity or progress in a current interest, all within the safety and supervision of our program.
