Greetings After School families!

We are slowly and surely moving our way toward spring! I don’t know about you, but I’m eager to move on from the snow and winter weather, and look forward to some bright, sunny days!

If you haven’t heard already, we now have a science club at After School every other Tuesday and Friday. We are fortunate enough to have Paula with us leading age-appropriate STEM-based activities for our children. I also want to give a huge shout out to Program Manager Stephany Aimeé for organizing the science club for us here at After School. Through her efforts, we were fortunate enough to welcome Paula as a student volunteer from UW. Paula has already led a few fun activities that include the teachings and demonstration of kinetic energy by creating a catapult using a spoon, craft sticks and rubber bands; and UV bead experiments to teach us about the sun and how we are protected from its radiation with the use of sunscreen.

This month, we are looking forward to more fun and engaging activities, and hopefully more outdoor time as well.

Adam
