Eagle Zone Before & After School Program
2023-2024 School Year
General Information
Eagle Zone Mission
Eagle Zone will provide a fun, safe, and enriching environment that is respectful and inclusive for school-age youth in the Eden Prairie community.
Philosophy
We strive to provide a safe, engaging program where children have the freedom to explore their interests, be active and socialize with their peers. Eagle Zone is committed to providing a fun, safe, and enriching environment that is respectful, inclusive, and nurturing in order to promote the love of learning during out of school time programs.
Eagle Zone will:
- Establish a program that fosters a sense of belonging for all who are involved
- Encourage students to explore their personal interests and individual strengths
- Provide meaningful engagement between students and staff
- Continuously introduce new activities that allow children to have fun and experience new things
- Foster social, academic, physical and emotional development for all children involved
- Establish connections between families, community members, school staff and children
- Cultivate a culture that provides a positive educational experience for all involved
2023-2024 School Year
New contracts and schedule changes will only be accepted based on staffing availability at each site and spaces are extremely limited, if not already full. Additional spaces will open as we add additional staff to our team.
We recommend having your schedule for the school year to be as accurate and up to date as possible to ensure care is available for all dates needed. There will be limited availability for drop-ins at each site. These will be approved based on day-to-day site availability. We have implemented a two-week notice policy for any additions or changes to your schedule.
