Ashe County Schools are excited to include the 21st Century Learning Center Grant to provide ACS Afterschool Program. Staff have spent numerous hours planning an unforgettable school year for your children. While they are taking part in unique experiences and adventures, participants will also be expanding their knowledge, developing interpersonal skills, and making lasting friendships and memories. This program is currently free to all participants. This is subject to change depending on the grant resources.
Daily Students are provided:
- Snack (also free)
- Homework Help
- Physical Fitness
- Enrichment (this includes a theme and are NC Standards activities planned by coordinators)
The overall goal is for students that participate in Afterschool to grow as a whole child through academics, social well-being, personal enrichment, and community relationships, while being in a safe and nurturing environment with many choices. We will partner with local agencies such as the State Parks, Local Government and Law Enforcement, Sports Teams, Parks and Recreation, and more to grow and connect our community to our students and families. Ashe County Schools is excited about this opportunity to serve our students and their families. You and your children are important to us. It is our desire to work with you and your child to provide a safe, nurturing learning environment and provide quality programming. We look forward to the school year and all the exciting opportunities that await your child.
