  1. Discover Afterschool! October 12, 2006 The School District of Palm Beach County in partnership with PrimeTime PBC

  2. Who? • More than 28 million children in the U.S. have parents who work outside the home and 14.3 million children have no place to go after school. • The SDPBC serves over 19,000 of these students in afterschool programs throughout the District.

  3. What? • Discover Afterschool, Palm Beach County’s celebration of Lights On Afterschool for 2006, promoted the critical importance of quality afterschool programs in the lives of children, their families and their communities.

  4. Why? • Many afterschool programs across the country face funding shortfalls so severe that they are forced to close their doors and turn off their lights.

  5. How do we respond? • Our District demonstrates the belief that options for students in afterschool programming are a priority through implementation of: • School Age Child Care -SACC (94 sites) • Beacon Centers (12 sites) • Middle School After School Programs (35 sites) • 21st Century Community Learning Centers (7 sites) • Summer Camps (50+ sites)
