Bedford County After School

Do you live in Bedford County PA and are in third, fourth or fifth grade this year? If so, you can sign up to be in the new and improved and FREE after school program!

If you’ve been part of the program in the past, you’ll see lots of the same things, plus more - more recreation, more fun stuff with computers, cameras and video, more fun stuff with older kids who will be helping with the programs.

Each Monday through Thursday at six sites throughout Bedford County after school begins at 3 p.m. with an after school snack, followed by homework and academic help - many of our kids get their homework done during that time, meaning they have more fun time at home with their families

After homework and snack, we’ll then move into recreation time that will include lots of fun, non-traditional games and skills-building activities. Think you know what PE looks like? 

Each night will also include a wide variety of project-based activities.

Want to learn Who Dunnit? Become a crime-solving wizard in our forensics unit.

Want to learn how to put together great-tasting snacks? You’ll have fun in our 4-H cooking and nutrition activities.

Have you dreamed of being the next Taylor Swift? You’ll have a chance to test your performance skills in our talent shows and one-act plays.

Or perhaps you’ve always wanted to learn to plan a garden and grow plants? If so, you’ll learn about plants and gardens.

Want to build your own robot? Learn how to put together a hex bug!

The activities will change every evening - and some evenings, there will be more than one!

The program runs until 6 p.m., ending with a bus ride home. So, contact your site coordinator today to learn more or sign up - jump right into the fun!
