  • TLC Spring 2022 Afterschool Clubs: Changes & Important Dates

  • During Spring 2022, Teton Literacy Center, Teton County School District and Jackson Hole Children's Museum are piloting a new format for our elementary afterschool clubs. The ultimate goal of this new format is to increase the capacity of our afterschool programs in the next year, providing more families access to clubs and growing the number of days students can attend.

    In this new club structure, Kinder - 5th grade clubs will be offered two days per week at each site (CES, JES and MMES). With the exception of students from outlying schools, we will not mix students from different schools at any site. Therefore, students will remain at their school for all TLC afterschool clubs. Students from outlying schools are welcome to apply and we will consider them for the CES, JES and MMES sites.

    In recognition that pickup at MMES can be a challenge, we are working with TCSD to potentially provide an Activity Bus to 1 - 2 stops in town for MMES students on Wednesdays and/or Thursdays. This is not a guarantee.

    Spring afterschool clubs will run from Monday, April 11th – Thursday, June 2nd.  We will notify families of their status for spring clubs on Thursday, March 10th (all notifications will be sent via email).

  • TLC 2022 Summer SOAR Program: Application Process, Commitment Expectations & Important Dates

  • Our Summer SOAR Program will run from Monday, June 20th - Thursday, August 11th. The first four weeks, June 20th - July 14th, will be full days at TLC (9am - 4:30pm). The second four weeks, July 18th - August 11th, SOAR will run for two hours following TCSD's Summer Program.

    Families must commit to all eight weeks of programs to be accepted. Due to the increasing waitlist numbers for SOAR, we will be asking families to sign a contract of commitment to all eight weeks of programming. Failure to attend 87% or more days of SOAR programming will result in the reduction of points in future TLC program lotteries.

    Further, parents of all accepted students will be required to attend a Mandatory Parent Meeting for their student(s) to participate in SOAR. Parent Meetings will be held the following dates and times. Meeting details and location will be sent after acceptance to program. Families only need to attend one meeting:

    • Tuesday, May 17 at 6pm
    • Wednesday, May 18 at 12pm

    We will notify rising 1st - 5th grade families of their status for SOAR on Thursday, March 17th (all notifications will be sent via email).

    Top rising 6th - 8th grade SOAR applicants will be invited to interview with TLC staff in March as a next step in the application process (you will be emailed an invite for your student to participate in this step). Final notifications for rising 6th - 8th grade applicants will be emailed following Spring Break.

  • Spring 2022 Afterschool Clubs: Kinder - 5th Grade Students

  • Again, during Spring 2022, Teton Literacy Center, Teton County School District and Jackson Hole Children's Museum are piloting a new format for our elementary afterschool clubs. The goal of this new format is to ultimately increase the capacity of our afterschool programs in the next year.

    In this new club structure, Kinder - 5th grade clubs will be offered two days per week at each site (CES, JES and MMES). With the exception of students from outlying schools, we will not mix students from different schools at any site. Therefore, students will remain at their school for all TLC afterschool clubs. Students from outlying schools are welcome to apply and we will consider them for the CES, JES and MMES sites.

    Students at all locations will meet club instructors immediately following school in the school cafeteria. Pickup will be at 5pm at the appropriate elementary school.

    Please reach out to Carisa at carisa@tetonliteracy.org with any questions, comments or concerns around this shift.

  • Spring 2022 Afterschool Clubs: 6th - 8th Grade Students
