Utilizing your carving out time tool, I was able to create a new schedule for after school programming that allowed more time for clubs and activities instead of outside and snack. The result was less children in one space which alleviated behavior issues and allowed children more opportunity to learn and dive deeper into program. I appreciate your positive feedback and advice when visiting during my site lead in November. You clearly put STUDENTS FIRST when it comes to program and program quality.
