ASP
The Manchester Parks and Recreation created The Hornets After School Program in January 2007 and it has grown to include over 150 families since that time with great support from the Manchester-Essex Regional School District.
           
The Hornets After School Program is licensed by the Department of Education and Care and we follow a very high-end set of guidelines to promote the well being, safety, and fun for all of our children that participate in the program. We offer a safe and supportive alternative between school and home for children in grades K-5. Activities include outdoor play, open gym, arts and crafts, homework time, seasonal activities, and daily snack time. The program runs every school day from 3:00-6:00 PM at the Manchester Elementary School. Parents have the option of sending their children either one, two, three, four, or five days a week. Tuition is paid on a monthly basis on the first of each month for the previous month’s use. Please pack warm clothes because we will play outside. Do you have questions about this program? Please email Heather DePriest, the Program Director, at depriesth@manchester.ma.us.
