CHESTERTOWN — We are excited to announce registration for the Boys and Girls Club of Harford and Cecil Counties Before Care Program at H.H. Garnet Elementary School is now open!
Before Care offers a number of different programs to help students be successful.
The program will offer Morning Mindfulness. Mindfulness-based techniques have been shown to increase attention, improve self-regulation and self-esteem, increase coping, decrease levels of stress and anxiety and create a sense of calm in children of all ages.
The Power Hour homework assistance program provides homework help, tutoring and high yield learning activities. It encourages members to become self-directed learners.
Through the nationally acclaimed SMART Moves program, participants will be exposed to various activities designed to hone their decision-making and critical-thinking skills, as well as learn how to avoid and resist risky choices.
The Triple Play program is a health and wellness initiative that strives to improve the overall health of members by increasing their daily physical activity, teaching them good nutrition and helping them develop healthy relationships.
Families can apply for a Maryland Scholarship for Child Care that will significantly lower the full rate.
If you do not qualify for Maryland Scholarship for Child Care; you may be eligible for Boys and Girls Club Financial Aid.
The regular tuition is $92.50/week per child for before care. The Boys and Girls Club Financial Aid brings it to $60/week per child for before care.
All families awarded Maryland Scholarship for Child Care could have a copay of $3 or less a week.
