After school care

If you have an after school group, such as a program for latch key kids:
  • A rigid schedule helps in many ways because so many children need consistency and reliability
  • Start the schedule with food
    • make it a habit to scrounge all the left over food from the church.
    • They kids will eat anything and this keeps wasted food to a minimum.
  • Follow food with some wild recreation
  • Plan on children/youth having to come and go.
    • No activity can be such that it can't be stopped or suspended at any point
    • Rigid processes for checking a youth in and out have to be observed
  • Build in homework time or, better, a homework space that students can utilize as needed
  • Arrange for tutors for particular subjects (Languages and math are the most popular). They might come on request or on a particular time and day of the week.
