Williams After School Club Inc

The Williams After School Club, Inc. (WASC) provides an after school program for the enrichment and enjoyment of the Auburndale and Lower Falls community. The Williams After School Club, Inc. serves children between 5 to 12 years of age who are enrolled in the Williams Elementary school or a child of a Williams Elementary School Teacher. Our fundamental goal is to provide a safe, high quality and affordable after school program. We recognize the need for an environment in which there are opportunities for socializing, unwinding and releasing of energy. The Program provides structured activities from which each child may choose; including sports, arts, crafts, free play, drama, science, etc. These activities are of sufficient range to appeal to many personalities and interests, are balanced between quiet and active, and seek to extend the children s skills and experiences.

Attention is paid to contributing to each child's emotional and social development. Self-confidence and self-respect are encouraged, as are responsibility, decision-making and respect for others, and for one's own commitments. Each child contributes to the development of rules, which, by limiting certain kinds of behavior, create an environment in which all of the children s privacy and right to make choices are protected.
