Project SCOPE

Welcome to Project SCOPE
The Project SCOPE Office is located at 2715 S. 4th St.
Project SCOPE is a before and after school program for the children of parents who work or are in educational training. The program provides the kind of care which promotes social, emotional and physical development through supervised activities. SCOPE is a program which compliments both home and school by providing a secure atmosphere for the children.

Registration
In order to attend Project SCOPE, you must first register your child through the SCOPE Office. Once you have registered at the SCOPE office, you will be given a form to take to the SCOPE Staff at your child's school. This form must be presented the first day your child attends SCOPE.

Upon registering your child in the SCOPE program, there is a 24 hour waiting period before a child can begin attending SCOPE.

Students may only attend the SCOPE program at the school they attend. To register please call 525-3309.

Regular school supervision begins 20 minutes before school starts, when the playground supervisor comes on duty. If your child is planning to eat school breakfast, they will go to the cafeteria at that time.

After school activities include a transition time, an afternoon snack, outdoor and gym activities, a special activity like an art or craft project, a science project, or an organized game. There is time for homework and free choice manipulative activities. Project SCOPE is open until 6:00 p.m.
