LATCHKEY AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM 2009–2010 |
-
- The City of Corpus Christi Parks & Recreation Department’s Latchkey After School Program is the answer for working parents concerned about leaving their children in unsupervised environments.
It is a recreational program licensed by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. The program is for children ages 5-13 and features structured activities in a fun recreation environment with a staff:child ratio of 1:22. It operates Monday through Friday from the end of the school day until 6pm at 36 elementary school sites within the Corpus Christi, Calallen and Flour Bluff Independent School Districts. It observes the same holiday schedule as the school districts. Children who attend schools that do not offer the Latchkey program can register at any Latchkey site with the understanding that the parent will make transportation arrangements. Tuition is $89 per month for first child and $74 for each additional child. Tuition assistance is available for qualified participants. All staff members receive training in safety, supervision, age-appropriate activities, CPR and First Aid. A parent or guardian sign out security system is utilized. All qualifying sites will be provided with snacks through a grant with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Special Nutrition Program. The program strives to provide a quality recreational experience and enhance each child’s leisure skills through arts, crafts, drama, games, special events and more.
