KIDVENTURE AFTER SCHOOL

As we look ahead to the school year, we understand the importance and necessity that after-school provides our students and working families. We also understand the need to implement precautions and guidelines that help ensure the well-being of your child, your family, and our staff. We successfully implemented those guidelines and provided our after-school programs to hundreds of families over the years. It is that experience and our desire to make a difference that will allow us to continue to provide our programs in the school setting during these times. Kidventure has a specialized curriculum, incorporating hands-on activities, thoughtful discussions, and encouraging creativity. We look forward to bringing our unique brand of After School to you this upcoming school year.

Your After School Team

The most important part of your child’s after-school experience is our staff. We pride ourselves on selecting experienced, active, and caring individuals for our programs. Our staff is dedicated to meeting the needs of each child while upholding Kidventure’s mission statement. We require the following of all our counselors:

  • First Aid and CPR Certification
  • Covid-19 protocol and safety training
  • Virtus (Sexual Abuse Awareness) Certification
  • Extensive Background Check
  • Adults Age 18 or Older
  • Wear Professional After School Uniform Daily
  • Attendance at Ongoing Training

In addition to our counselors that are counted “in ratio” (1 counselor per 10 children for 1st-8th grade, and 1:8 for Early Childhood), we have a Site Director that maintains day-to-day operations at each After School location. Furthermore, the After School Program Coordinator creates the program curriculum, ensures that all supplies are on-site, and is ultimately responsible for the successful operation of After School.

Our staff is committed to your children and encourages you to offer your comments, compliments, and suggestions.

“Kidventure is an energetic group of counselors that have a fun-filled afterschool program packed with a variety of activities for all age groups. Students love the variety of games and schedules that keep them moving seamlessly throughout the late afternoon hours. Parents love the low student-to-teacher ratios, the added layer of security, and the continuous communication. Administration enjoys meeting with Kidventure on a regular basis, as faculty appreciates the guidance with homework and friendly staff.”

-Bernadette L. Drabek, Head of School St. Rose of Lima

“Kidventure Finale creates a safe, engaging, and fun afternoon environment for our students. Their low student-to-counselor ratio allows for close attention and personal connections and students can pursue interests through a variety of extra offerings through Encore. It’s been a well-received and great overall experience for our students.”
Thanks.

-Thomas Day, Principal Travis Elementary Hisd
