After School Program
St. Cyril of Alexandria School After School Program is established as a childcare alternative for parents whose children attend St. Cyril School. It will operate during the school year only. Its goal is to provide a safe, healthy, and caring environment, which assists in developing positive self-concept, appropriate social and play skills, increased physical coordination and creativity. The program offers activities that are active and quiet, educational and recreational, indoor and outdoor, adult-directed and self-directed. The Christian values that are an integral part of the school program are carried over in to the after school program. Participants are expected to respect adults, other children and all facility property.
