Serving 4-Year-Olds in Afterschool

A number of school districts across the state are transitioning to full day 4K. With this shift in the school-day, many programs can expect to begin serving 4-year-olds in before and after school settings starting in fall. We invite you to join one of the roundtable discussions below as we collaborate, share ideas, and support one another in providing high-quality programming for all kids. 

Learning from Experience: Supporting 4-Year-Olds in OST
Roundtable discussion for programs already serving 4-year-olds to share practical strategies, lessons learned, and tips for creating developmentally appropriate, high-quality experiences.

Preparing for Change: Welcoming 4-Year-Olds in Fall
Roundtable discussion for programs exploring what to expect when adding 4-year-olds to your program, discuss common questions, and identify resources and supports to help staff feel confident and prepared for this transition.

Fueling Communities: Navigating CACFP & SFSP Programs
