A LEARNING ADVENTURE



Dear Parents,

This summer the Boys & Girls Club of Moody County will be offering a summer enrichment program for youth who were in kindergarten to fifth grade for the 2019-2020 school year. Power Up gives youth opportunities to review and practice reading skills and math skills taught during the school year. Specifically, youth work on comprehension skills, high frequency words, phonics skills, and writing skills.

The Power Up program will run Monday through Thursday for five weeks (July 6 – August 6) and the location will be announced prior to the program starting. Youth participants that were in Kindergarten, 1st, 2nd or 3rd grade during the 19-20 school year will participate in the 8-9:55 AM session and those that were in 4th or 5th grade will participate in the 10-11:55 AM session. It is required that all youth participants be present for at least four out of the five weeks to ensure the greatest academic success impact, so if you intend to reserve enrollment for your child, it is expected that you plan any extended family vacations for before or after the program.

For youth enrolled in the 8:00 AM program, parents are responsible for dropping their child off at the program location, but not prior to 7:45am. There will be a teacher at the location at 7:45am to supervise children who may need to be dropped off as early as 7:45am. After the session, parents can either coordinate pick up their child or request that the Boys & Girls Club transport to the Boys & Girls Club. For youth enrolled in the 10:00 AM program, parents can coordinate drop off and pick up for their child or request that the Boys & Girls Club transport.

If you would like to enroll your child in this program, complete the attached registration form and return it to your child’s classroom teacher no later than Friday, May 1. Participants of Power Up will also need to be members of the Boys & Girls Club of Moody County. Membership applications can be picked up at the Club or found on our website: . The Boys & Girls Club of Moody County membership dues are $25, with an additional $25 summer program fee if you wish for them to take part in any Club summer programming outside of Power Up. Club memberships must be completed and handed in with your child’s Power Up membership form if they do not already have Club membership.

Other than the Club membership dues and summer program fee, there is no additional cost to Power Up. The Boys & Girls Club is able to provide Power Up to the youth in our community through the generous support of donors. If you are interested and able please consider a donation to this program, the estimated price to run this summer enrichment program is $340 per child.

Thank you for your consideration of the Boys & Girls Club of Moody County Power Up Program. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,

Bekah Bambas
