Crash Zone: After School

Due to Shelter in Place regulations Crash Zone is on pause. We will update this page once we're able to offer it again.

Crash Zone is the WVPC after-school program for Middle School Students, running since 2011! Through Crash Zone we serve the local community families in a tangible way.

Crash Zone hours are Monday - Friday, 3 pm - 5:30 pm.

Crash Zone provides a safe, supervised, and friendly after-school environment for middle school students. There are few such after-school programs available for middle school students in the local area. We provide an affordable program for families who want a place for their students to go after school. Fees for the 2019 - 2020 school year are $55.00 per week.

Students can join the program any time during the school year

Program Structure
We provide study time and time for fun. Our Crash Zone staff and volunteers are happy to coach students in writing essays, solving math problems or studying for a test as well as enjoying games, working on craft projects, or just hanging out getting to know fellow students.

Daily Schedule:

3 pm - 3:15 pm - Students are expected to arrive and sign in. Snacks are available for students when they arrive. Once students have signed in, they are not allowed to leave campus again until they are picked up or at 5:30 pm when they are allowed to walk or bike home.
3:15 pm - 3:45 pm - Students work on homework. We have laptops for the students to use to complete homework. If students do not have homework, they can read a book or bring another quiet project to work on during the homework hour.
3:45 pm - 5:30 pm - Discretionary time; students choose what they want to do. They can:
- Continue working on homework,
- Go outside and participate in the organized game of the day,
- Go to the movie room, where we will show a G-rated movie or program, or
- Go to the activities room, to play games or engage in other activities.

Students are free to move between the different areas as they choose.

5:30 pm - Program ends. Students must be picked up or head home by 5:30 pm.

Location
Crash Zone is on the WVPC campus, located adjacent to Hyde Middle School, at the corner of Bollinger Road and Miller Avenue (across from Safeway and Chase Bank).

Safety
Our program staff are background-checked, finger-printed, and trained to work with middle school students.

Parents will be notified by text if their student hasn't arrived by 3:30 pm on any day they are scheduled to attend.

Students may be released to walk or bike home on their own at 5:30 pm with prior permission. Students can also be signed out and picked up by a parent or other authorized person at any time.

While at Crash Zone, students will secure bicycles at the bike rack on the church campus. Scooters and skateboards can be stored in the "Board Bin".
