BLAST After School Program

We are in our 13th Year of our After School Program
Mondays through Wednesdays

Have a BLAST After School!

The Upper Darby Community Outreach After School Program, also known as BLAST provides a safe supervised place for early adolescents, in grades 4 through 8, to spend time after school.

Our program was started this 13 years ago to:

improve reading, math and writing performance in the regular school,
increase life resiliency skills,
expand students' creative & cultural opportunities,
build mentoring relationships with adults, and
encourage family participation.

Transportation provided from Stonehurst and Highland Park for an additional fee.

Session 1: September 14, 2009 through November 11, 2009

Session 2: November 16, 2009 through January 20, 2010

Session 3: January 25, 2010 through March 24, 2010

Session 4: April 5, 2010 through June 2, 2010

Our staff works with small groups providing a variety of structured supervised academic activities, cultural enrichment, field trips, service projects, homework help and more!

"My daughter looks forward to the experiences and speaks volumes about the staff and her peers."
