Parent/Student Comments There s someone there to help with homework if we need it. We cook! So far we ve made pizza, rice crispy treats, grilled cheese sandwiches and french fries. There s lots of fun games like Sharks and Minnows, Tag, and Capture the Flag. I think it s a fantastic program, one of the best in the school district. Once the kids get their homework done, they get to do different activities. It keeps their minds fresh and involved, and it takes the pressure off parents that may have to work. The parents don t have to worry about homework, and can instead spend quality time with their children.
