Hello Cooper Community,

In this year of near constant upheaval, we have seen that connections have become more important than ever and the after-school program is no exception. We are currently letting the teachers finish getting re-acclimated to distance learning and getting acquainted with the new Schoology system while putting together a modified after school program for the students this year.

This year, at least for the foreseeable future, all programming will be online. Due to the ongoing COVID-19, crisis some clubs will not be available as they have been in the past and the rest will be heavily modified for online program delivery. The program will start online the week of September 21^st. Please note that the activities list will be evolving as the year goes on and we hope to partner with other middle schools and community partners to provide more programming.

Thank you for your patience as we continue to navigate these strange times, and as always, stay safe.

Sincerely,

Daniel Frengel

After School Program Specialist
