School Year Program Descriptions
School Year Program Descriptions:
All three elementary schools have two HTSACC programs that operate according to the Hanover Township Public Schools calendar. Children in Kindergarten through 5th grade may register for either program.
Earlybirds-EB: 7:00-8:45 AM (NEW THIS YEAR - 7:00am START!)
Earlybirds was designed with the "early riser" in mind. Our program provides fun, low-stress activities such as board games, puzzles, STEM activities, cards, and simple arts/crafts. We also provide a light breakfast. *Please note: After 8:30 AM we are dismissing the children to school. If you arrive to school after 8:30 please use the regular morning line-up procedure instead of bringing your child into Early Birds.
After School Kids – ASK: 3:05-6:00 PM
The After School Kids program is designed to allow the children to explore their own interests through the various materials provided for “free play” and through the activities that are provided regularly by the staff. These activities include arts and crafts, board games, STEM projects, cooking and organized indoor and outdoor games. HTSACC staff work with the children in order to develop programming that meets the needs and the interests of a multi-aged group of children. A quiet time is available each day for the children to work on their homework.
Early Dismissal: 12:45-6:00
The school calendar includes a number of days when early dismissal is required. On early dismissal days, the children spend an extended period of time in After Schools Kids. Children registered for the day that the Early Dismissal falls on will be dismissed to HTSACC at 12:45 PM. There is NO school lunch or milk on half days - please be sure to send in a lunch and beverage with your child. If your child is not registered for a day that an Early Dismissal falls on, you can use our Drop In Day option - please call the office to reserve your space.
**Please note that HTSACC closes at 4:00 PM on the day before Thanksgiving and the day before the start of Winter break.
