Dear Parents, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to inform you about an exciting new after-school program that will be offered at Louisiana Elementary School starting next month. We believe that this program will provide valuable opportunities for our students to engage in enriching activities, receive additional academic support, and have a safe and structured environment after the regular school day. The Louisiana After School Program (LAST) will be available for students in grades 1-5 and will run from Monday to Thursday, from 3:30 pm to 5:30 pm. Additionally, we will offer transportation services for students who live within a specified radius, ensuring convenient access for all participants. The LAST curriculum is designed to cater to a wide range of interests and needs. Students will have the chance to explore various extracurricular activities such as arts and crafts, sports, music, drama, and technology. We have partnered with local community organizations and experienced instructors who will lead these activities, providing a diverse and engaging program for our students. The focus will be on promoting creativity, teamwork, leadership, and personal development. In addition to the enrichment activities, LAST will also incorporate academic support to help students thrive in their studies. Qualified teachers and tutors will be available to provide individual or small group assistance with homework, reinforcing classroom lessons, and offering guidance in areas where students may need extra help. We believe this tailored approach will benefit each child's academic progress and boost their confidence in their abilities. As parents, we understand that safety is a top priority. Rest assured that the LAST will uphold strict safety measures and guidelines to ensure the well-being of our students. Only authorized individuals will be allowed to pick up children, and we will enforce a sign-in/sign-out system to keep track of attendance. Our dedicated staff will maintain a safe and nurturing environment throughout the program. The cost of the LAST is $XX per week per student. However, we understand that financial constraints may exist for some families. Therefore, we have implemented a scholarship program to assist those in need. Please reach out to our school administration for more details and to discuss your eligibility for financial assistance. We strongly encourage you to take advantage of this exciting opportunity to enhance your child's educational experience. Registration for the LAST will begin on [date], and detailed information, including registration forms and program schedules, will be sent home with your child. Additionally, you can find all relevant information on our school's website under the After School Program section. Thank you for your continued support and dedication to your child's education. We are confident that the Louisiana After School Program will provide a valuable and enjoyable experience for our students. Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. Sincerely, [Principal's Name] [School Name]
