Save Shoreline School District Extended Care Programs

What a short sided discussion harming Shoreline School District families....shame, shame,shame!

This is a vital community resource based in school with school staff.

Please extend funding for before and aftercare programs. This should be considered a vital part of any education institutions, as families rely on this for the ability to work and therefore provide the necessary food, clothes, activities etc needed for school age children. The burden of stress families must bear without before and aftercare options is beyond enormous. Please please find these programs! Kind regards.

This is a critical part of the shoreline community! Parents rely on before/aftercare to be able to work and provide for their families. Please do not take this away from shoreline parents who are working hard to put food on the table.

This is a vital problem for our family

Please save extended care program in SSD!

Meridian Park Elementary School Before and After Care is a critical support resource for our family. For many families (including ours), two parents need to work full time in order to afford costs of living in this school district. Before and After Care that is integrated with the school is the most convenient and safest option for families. Please collaborate with parents and families to maintain this necessary resource for working families.

This is an important service for us to be able to get to work on time. Please don't cancel it

Aftercare is an essential service to our families.

It means less a lot stress for my family to have such reliable care & my child has felt welcomed & safe with the stable staff.

Extended care is a much needed and beloved service. Please keep it.

This is a crucial service for my family.

On site before and after care programs are critical for both working and single parents. Please continue to fund them to support these groups in the community.

We absolutely love the extended care providers at Brookside. All of them are attentive and caring and create an environment that is well structured and provides the consistency our son needs in his day. This offering is critical to our family.

This is a critical program to allow working parents to keep their jobs and afford to live in the area.

This is a critical offering that the district needs to properly support and maintain.

Another thing I would note is that in order to live in this area, both parents have to work. If programs such as these start to disappear, there is a strong chance people will need to move out of the area creating a loss in the school system which we know is another problem. Counting on other organizations to pick up the slack is irresponsible. They will have nothing invested and could shut the doors at any time.

Out family relied on and loved the before and after care programs at Edwin Pratt. It's something that makes Shoreline unique and our daughter loved it so much she always asked to be picked up last.

We really rely on aftercare for our child

The extended care is awesome. It helps the kids to communicate between the grades, have a great time together. It helps is a lot. The school starts late and it there is no care we won’t be able to work and have the kids at school.
