2023- 2024 School Year

To the Parent (s) or Guardian (s):
Welcome to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Illinois, Grant Middle Unit. We are currently enrolling students for the 2023 -2024 school year at Grant Middle School. We strongly encourage you to enroll your student in the Boys & Girls Club after school program. This program provides certified teachers that can assist, help, encourage and move your student to a satisfactory level of performance, along with fun and engaging enrichment activities.

The Boys & Girls Club is for students in Sixth- Eighth grade and meets Monday thru Thursday from 2:30- 5:30pm at Grant Middle School. Our program does not meet on Fridays, on days where school is dismissed early for a holiday, and on days when there is no school.

For the 2023 -2024 school year, program will begin on Monday, August 21 st , 2023. Don’t forget your application should include the annual $40 enrollment fee per child enrolled. Checks for this fee should be made payable to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Illinois (BGCCIL).
If you already know you would like your child in the program again this year, please fill out the
application which can be found in the school’s main office, or reach out to Miss Kay at
jspearman@bgccil.org for an emailed copy and have it returned to me as soon as possible, as space is limited.

Students MUST have a completed application turned in by Thursday morning in order for the
child to start the FOLLOWING Monday! Applications received after Thursday mornings will not be entered until Monday and thus the student will not be able to start until the NEXT Monday.

Our daily schedule will be as follows:
2:30- 3:00 Snacks
3:00- 3:30 Recess and restroom breaks
3:30- 4:30 Powerhour (homework and reading/math enrichment)
4:30-5:15 Enrichment (i.e. basketball, arts & crafts, drama club, step team, board games, etc)
5:15- 5:30 parent pickup by no later than 5:30.

Thank you for your support and participation in the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Illinois and we look forward to working with you and your students this year.

In Service,
