I have been hearing from so many of you about how the loss of this program complicates your daily work schedules and family commutes. I am currently compiling your personal stories to present directly to the foundation board because they need to understand the real impact of this decision.

Seeing this much momentum behind an issue that affects my own family leaves me completely wordless. The fact that so many of you understand why we need this flexibility for our kids means everything to me.

This program is truly needed for my family. My husband and I are both teachers and due to my school's later start time and location, I am unable to pick him up by dismissal. The Star Enrichment allows us to fulfill our duties and pick our son up by 4pm.
The 3-4 pm slot is an important option to my family. It allows us to have our daughter tutored after school for her learning disability. Taking this away not only puts parents in a difficult spot financially, it also takes away homework and family time for some families.
The Stars Enrichment program is imperative and a necessity for the parents that live in the southern part of the county whose children attend CMIT Elementary. Please reconsider the discontinuance of this option. Since the school does not provide transportation, this option allows parents to ensure that their children can attend this sound educational institution.
Please reinstate Stars Enrichment at CMIT North. Our family truly depends on the 1 hour after school option. We have rearranged our work schedules to accommodate & ensure that our child can be picked up by 4. My job will not continue to go back & forwards with me as my change has forced changes for us.
The 3-4 pm Stars option allows a more affordable aftercare option for families struggling to attend a choice school.
Please bring back the stars program. Thanks!
We want this back.

The Scholars Enrichment program is TWICE as much as the former STARS program and not all parents need care through 6p. In addition, this is an incredible expense if a parent has more than one child in the Enrichment program. Is there any consideration to bringing the STARS program back as, other than the financial benefit for CLF, there is no extra "work" for the teachers who are going to be there until 6p anyway. This is a MAJOR disappointment. Lastly, will the drop-in fee that was implemented last school year still be available to parents who are not enrolled in Enrichment full-time? As a parent who works remotely most days, only need the Enrichment program 1 - 2 days per week? $280 for 2 - 4 days bi-weekly is excessive.
