Middle School After-School

Community Education Daily Middle School After-School Program

Dear SLCSD Community Education Families:

All Community Education After-School Programs have very strict standards. Our standards are geared towards assuring a healthy environment, positive staff-to-student interactions, and high-quality programs. Community Education strives to provide all students with a range of enrichment experiences to ensure that every student is Ready for Tomorrow.

Program Overview

Our programs begin when the regular school day ends and remain open until 6:00 PM. We maintain a low staff-to-student ratio, which allows our staff to be more attentive to each student and provide a broader range of enrichment activities. The After-School Program expectations align with the school day expectations & the daily rotations include CARE (Café, Academics, Recreation, & Enrichment). Our enrichment activities incorporate:

• Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (STEAM), Digital Citizenship, Health and Wellness, and Enrichment Clubs.

In addition students will have access to enrichment opportunities based on their interests building upon student skills and strengths.  Community Education wants to ensure that every student is Ready for Tomorrow and our high-quality programs will provide access to make students life long-learners.

  Purpose

Our primary purpose is to incorporate social and emotional learning concepts to encourage youth to remain in school while building a sense of closeness in interpersonal relationships by being a part of the Community Education Middle School Intramural Sports Program.

 Philosophy

  The philosophy of the Community   Education Middle School Intramural Sports Program (CEMSISP) is to provide students with an opportunity to participate in activities “without a win at all cost atmosphere.” The primary reason for participation in the CEMSISP is for the enjoyment of the activities rather than pressure to compete and win, as in athletic competition. The CEMSISP provides students with a level of sports that concentrates on learning the game and developing skills. Students can develop or refine skills in a variety of activities.

Communtiy Education, in partnership with the salt Lake Education Foundation, collaborates to support hand-son enrichment opportunities for the youth of the Salt Lake City School District through high-quality after-school programming.  Together we are preparing our scholars with 21^st Century Skills making them ready for tomorrow!

Community Education, in partnership with The Salt Lake Education Foundation (SELF), supported over 1, 000 students who participated in the middle school intramural sports program.  Over 100 games were made possible with referee funding provided by Salt Lake Education Foundation in-kind donations of $2,000.

The middle school intramural sports program’s purpose is to incorporate social and emotional learning concerpts to encourage youth to remian in school while building a sense of closeness in interpersonal relationships by being a part of the Community Education Middle School Intramural Sports program.  Through programs like Soccer, Basketball, Vollwyball, and Track students and their families had more opportunities for family engagment and stregthening community relationships.
