Urban Scholars Afterschool Program Info
Hello Howard Team,
The after school program will not be in classrooms for the first three weeks of school. (August 12th-30th, 2019)
We hope this gives those who will be sharing classrooms (information below), time to finish setting up structures and classroom deliverables.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you and have a great school year!
