About Before & After School Programs for Downes & West Park Elementary
The Newark Before and After School Center continues to be very successful. Children that participate in these programs will have an opportunity to engage in a wide variety of activities. These activities include arts and crafts, indoor/outdoor play, games, homework help and special projects. As always we try to meet the needs and interests of our participants. Suggestions are always welcome. This program is for Downes and West Park Elementary School students only.

The Before School Center will meet from 7-8:15am and is for children in grades K-5. Our After School Center will meet
3-6pm for children in grades K-5 for both schools. One month's tuition is due at time of registration. Starting in September each month's tuition is due by the 10th of each month.
