Rec'ing Crew - Grades K to 5
School days until 6:00 pm
The activities offered by Rec'ing Crew provide hours of after-school fun for children - from the time the school bus picks them up from school to when their parents arrive. Children can be signed up for one day a week, every day, or somewhere in between.
Recreational opportunities include playing in the gym, swimming, using the climbing wall, and participating in activities such as movies, art and music. The 26-acre Countryside Park and Butterfly Playground provide hours of fun when weather permits. The program encourages healthy socialization with others and offers a daily homework period to reduce the need to use family time at night for schoolwork.
New this year is the addition of an exciting weekly STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) project each Tuesday. The kids will have so much fun, they won’t even realize they are learning. Once a month Rec’ing Crew will visit our Maker Space area in Creativity Commons at the RecPlex and create unique items. Financial Literacy and interesting special guests will visit each month as well.
