Description

Puget Sound Educational Service District is proud to offer these Expanded Learning opportunities for children in a supervised, safe and drug-free environment to students in our region. We provide students and families with experiences outside of the classroom to accelerate academic success, increase social-emotional growth and develop meaningful community connections. Expanded Learning Programs work with diverse populations in elementary, middle and juvenile schools.

Micro

Puget Sound Educational Service District (PSESD) expanding learning programs serve qualifying elementary and middle school students through the Expanded Learning Programs, by providing academic and academically focused enrichment activities such as computer and digital photography clubs; math, science and reading clubs; team and leadership building activities; music, drama and art programs; and much more. Combining an academic atmosphere with a variety of high-interest activities has been found to be a key component in successful after school programs. Each program is tailored to meet the needs of its students and community and works in conjunction with other support services, extended library services and family oriented educational opportunities to help parents support their children’s academic success.
Social emotional learning is the key to providing connection within our community learning centers. There are opportunities to work directly with students doing hands on projects to planning and implementing family engagements. There are opportunities as well to do small group mentoring with our students. We are open to hearing your ideas on how to support our enrolled students.
