After School Program of

Mars Campus - Dutilh United Methodist Church

Our program is open Monday through Friday, from 3:30-6:00 p.m.  We operate according to the Mars School District calendar, and will only be open when there is a full day of school.  We will be open the first day that the children return to school from summer break.

Mission Statement:

The Mars Campus - Dutilh United Methodist Church After School Program will provide area children in grades K-6 with a safe, comfortable, nurturing environment in which to spend time after school.  All children are entitled to respect, caring, and compassion and will be treated equally.

Transportation:

The Mars School District Transportation System will bring your child(ren) to the church after school, but they must be brought every day.  If you plan to have your child attend our program less than 5 days per week on a regular basis you will have to arrange other transportation through the school.  Please send a note to school with your child stating that they will need to ride the bus to our program which stops directly outside of the church (Pittsburgh and Lincoln Street Bus Stop).

Registration:

“In House” registration is open to families who currently have child(ren) enrolled in the program and takes place before the end of each school year.  “Open Registration” is open to new students at the end of the school year until the program is filled (20 students maximum).  This is based on first come – first served basis.  Call 724-625-1488 to request registration information.

Cost:

The program is $50 per month and is free to those who qualify!

Daily Schedule:

The children arrive at 3:45 daily.  After washing hands, snack is served then the children are encouraged to finish homework or choose a center to go to  Centers generally include:  crafts, games, computers, building, creative play, cooking, or outside play.

Staff:

The Program Director is on site daily.  We also have adult and youth volunteers who work with the children.  All adult volunteers have passed their Act 33/34 Clearances as well as a criminal record check.  We do not accept court appointed community service hours for youth volunteers.  Our volunteers help at the program because they want to make a difference in the lives of the children and families of our community.  There is always at least one adult, two youth volunteers and one junior youth volunteer on the schedule.
