Go Team!

The After School Program had some fun with the pom pons during Movement class. Between the shaking, noise and colors, pom pons serve as great sensory objects.

Quintin: Feature Participant

Every other month, Out & About highlights a participant from Children Services. For March, we turn our attention to Quintin.

Quintin attends Swimming and Art Exploration once a week with the After School Program. At the start of every activity, Quintin runs up to all his friends with a huge smile and greets them with a high five. The Out & About staff admires Quintin's sincere approach to saying hi to all his friends. Over the holidays, Quintin attended a School Closure Day with another participant who was having a difficult day. He independently walked up to his peer, put a hand on his shoulder and said, "you okay?" The other participant responded, "Hi, yes." Quintin LOVES football and can name every NFL team for you. His enthusiasm for art and swimming with friends allows him to make the most out of activities with Out & About.
