Welcome, Fall!
Kids Club Updates: October '19 Edition
From the Director's desk...
I am Binti Shah, the Director of Kids Club, the before-and-after-school program at the 11 elementary schools of the PHM School District. I am passionate about hands-on co curricular learning and have been involved with Kids Club since March of 2019. I have 25 years of international experience with setting curriculum for preschool as well as elementary education.
I believe in the Howard Gardner's Multiple intelligence approach and feel that all students should get an exposure to different learning intelligence. It helps widen one's scope of life skills. I believe Kids Club to be an extension of the school day where the child gets the well-rounded balance of interacting with their peers in a large group setting while being engaged in a fun-filled, meaningful way.
Feel free to reach out to me for any assistance or feedback mailto:bshah@phm.k12.in.us

Something New...
Thus far we have begun LEGO Club, Art Club, STEM Club, Coding Club, and Gym Games Club. Our hope is to continue expanding our Clubs throughout the remainder of the school year.
During the remainder of 2019, we will be developing a larger variation of choices and options for students to chose from during our specified Club Days. Additionally, Kids Club is planning to integrate more than the aforementioned Clubs to allow our students to explore their own curiosities. Excitingly, we are working diligently to add Interest Clubs based on what the students at each site are most interested in learning more about, experiencing, or participating in! It would give them the freedom of voice and choice and help them to feel an ownership.
