Alliance After-School Care Program
Alliance After-School Care is an after-school program designed for children in elementary school and the Pre-K program at Woodson Head Start and Locust. Serving an average of 620 children a day, Alliance After-School Care is offered at each of the elementary schools. Children enjoy arts and crafts, indoor and outdoor playtime, homework time, and a snack.

The program maintains affordability without sacrificing quality of care and education.
