2008-2009 After-School Karate Program
Who Takes Care
of Your Child After
3 P.M.?
In 60% of
American families with school-age children, both parents work
outside of the home, leaving parents scrambling for child care
between the hours of 3 and 6:30 pm.
In fact, the
disconnect between parental job constraints and school hours has
given rise to its own special brand of anxiety:
“Parental
After-School Stress”.
One sure way to
alleviate “Parental
After-School Stress” is with our quality After-School Program. We keep younger kids safe
and older kids out of trouble. We motivate and encourage children
who might otherwise be tempted to watch too much television, play
too many video games or just remain inactive and isolated during the
after school hours.
Latch Key Kids can also benefit tremendously from our After-School Program. The
hours from
3
to 6 p.m. are peak times for juvenile crime, teenage car crashes and
experimentation with alcohol, drugs and sex. A recent survey of
over 1,000 law enforcement professionals found that they ranked
after-school programs as the most important tool for reducing youth
crime, even ahead of hiring more police officers.
Karate –The Ultimate Anti-Drug!
Twice the benefit
for the same price.
The children are
divided into two groups by age, grade level and karate rank.
One group has an
exciting karate lesson, one group works on their homework or has
free time activities and a snack. The groups are then rotated so
that every child has benefited and is ready to be picked up by 6:30
p.m. This allows you more quality time in the evening with your child,
while your child is receiving the benefits of karate.
