KIDS MATTER is our new after-school program and it's off to an awesome start. The first day, 11 kids came. We want you to come, too! Mrs. Lisa and Ms. Janie from University Heights Baptist Church, along with HRS, are starting a second location for kids in grades K-4 who live in the Polly/Hargis Street area.

MEETING TIMES:

Every Tuesday at the TNT Center in the Police Substation, 706 Pine Ave. Every Thursday at the HRS main office community room, 235 W. Jackson St. The programs at both locations begin immediately after school and end at 4:45 p.m. Parents can walk their children to the sites or drop them off. Children can be picked up, or a volunteer can walk them home. Children from any of our housing sites are welcome to attend at either location. Transportation is not provided at this time. The children will be provided with a snack, then play fun reading games or have story time. They will be able to do arts and crafts and check out books to read at home. Kids Matter will not meet if school is closed or bad weather is approaching. Please consider bringing your child to these reading programs. Studies show that children who read perform much better in school with higher grades and improved learning ability, and graduate with plans for further education. For more information, please call Mrs. Lisa at 931-261-9486 or Kathy at 931-526-9793 ext. 212.
