Before and After School Programs:

Supplemented with literacy, fitness and character-building enhancements, the Five Activity Areas serve as Champions' core curriculum.

• Take the Challenge - Homework options are central to Champions service profile. Depending on parent and school priorities, we offer homework as an activity choice, a contracted activity between parent and child, a mandatory part of every child's schedule, or a tutoring segment (for an additional charge). We also provide students with opportunities that challenge them mentally through the use of strategic games, books and hands on activities.

• Imagine That - Creative activities are a key to Champions programming. Children participate in arts and crafts, drama, music and dance, allowing creativity to blossom and reinforcing communication and literacy skills in a fun context.

• The Nature of It - Science projects help children begin thinking about and exploring the world around them. Projects are hands-on, fun, and highly interactive, sparking curiosity about nature and helping children realize that science is anything but boring.

• Sports Zone - Group and individual sports and games are highlighted in this segment. Children learnthat sports, like any activity, require discipline and focus. They begin to understand that being part of a team means holding up your part of the bargain.

• Snack Attack - Snack Attack is an area where we encourage children to be aware of nutritious foodchoices and healthy bodies. We also focus on measurement through fun activities and discussion. Students engage in fun, hands on activities, crafts and experiments that use food and utensils.

Program Enhancements:

• Read-Write-Now! Literacy Program and Book Clubs

• Sites dedicate at least 30 minutes daily to reading, writing, and vocabulary building. Our Book Club introduces a new work of children's literature monthly. Reading aloud to children conveys a proven benefit to reading progress!

Character Development Program:

Children shape important values in five key areas: community involvement, mentoring, conflict resolution, diversity appreciation, and family involvement. We developed the character program to address parent feedback.

Wellness Program:

Our wellness program focuses on physical activity, health, nutrition, goal-setting, and relaxation and stress management. Staff encourage healthy eating and physical fitness as a lifelong pursuit.
