Hi my name is Lacey Jones, I am a worker
for Alliance for Youth.
I really love this program, I love how
the kids can have a place to come after
school where it's a positive atmosphere.
I love how much the principals and the
teachers are so willing to work and help
the kids.
I think it's great, I think all schools
should have that.
The teachers and principals here work so
hard to make sure the kids get the best
experience and I think that's really cool
that they get that.

Hi I'm Ryan, this is Vivien and Bayla,
my two girls. We really appreciate the
after school program for the fact that we
know where our girls are when we can't
be available to pick them up.
We know that they're in good hands,
they're having fun, they get help with
their homework, they get healthy snacks,
they're in a climate controlled area, and
they get bathroom access whenever they
need it. So we love it for all the
practical reasons plus they've grown to
make relationships with the people that
work there.
At Wilson Elementary we've had after
school club for the last ten years and it
has made such a difference in our
community.
We have kindergarten through fifth grade
at our school, we ask every family to join
us in the after school club. We have
teachers, students, community members,
we have the parks and rec, and we just
find that when we build our community and
we have an opportunity for children to
participate we know that
children's skills get stronger, we depend
on it.
They have extra opportunity for practice
and for being in a positive environments.
And we just love it, we're just so happy
with it, we recommend it and we support it.

My name is Brenda Jepson and I have Carter
and Kaley that come to after school club
most every day.
The after school club has been a huge
benefit for our family.
It's afforded us the chance that we both
can work and our kids have a safe, fun
place to be until we can pick them up.
Hi, we are the Wisers and we love after
school club because, why?
One is dodge ball, and another is good
structure.
And homework help.
