At PACES after-school program, we recognize that every child is unique, with their own special talents and individual needs. We consider it a privilege to care for your child, and we are committed to ensuring they feel loved, respected, and happy while giving you, as their parent, complete confidence in their care.
Your child is cared for in a secure, welcoming environment where kindness and respect are always the standard.
Every day brings new adventures through arts, science, music, and play designed to spark curiosity and joy.
Flexible hours and built-in homework help make afternoons enriching for kids and stress-free for parents.
We know that when you entrust your child to our care, you’re not just looking for supervision, you’re looking for a partnership. Someone who will celebrate your child’s victories, support them through challenges, and help them develop into confident, caring individuals.
That’s exactly what we promise to deliver, every single day.
Upon arrival, all students will receive a nutritional snack that meets the USDA standards. Children will be divided into groups (based on their age) and will have opportunities for planned indoor/outdoor activities, time to work on homework, as well as down-time to socialize with their peers. Each week our Group Leaders will implement a lesson plan with teacher directed and child-directed activities in Arts & Crafts, Science, Reading, Music, & Sensory activities. We also see the importance in physical activity, & children will have opportunities to spend time outdoors participating in gross motor activities, group games, & sports activities.
PACES has a strong belief that children should be able to learn and have fun in a comfortable, safe environment. Our staff works with each individual child to ensure they are happy and feel important each day. Our staff monitor social situations daily to ensure that children are not being bullied or pressured into activities they are not comfortable with. We will not tolerate inappropriate language or behavior toward another child or staff member. We will work hard to help children learn the tools to good, positive communication, as well as how to successfully work through conflicts that may arise.
