STERLING ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM

We are excited to announce that Sterling School has been awarded an Extended School Program grant. The program will provide services to students after school until 5:00 pm. The program will begin on September 11, 2017 and run through May 10, 2018. Our program this year will run Monday through Thursday. To encourage participation our after-school program will not run on Basketball practice days this year. Sixty-five per cent of the time will be used for educational purposes. This can include help with homework or other educational activities that have been provided to us. The program is free to the students of the Sterling School District. An after-school snack will be provided daily. It is our hope that this service will be of value to your busy schedules and most importantly, the education of our children.
