During the summer of 1978, the Hamilton Community School offered a variety of classes and activities for both children and adults. Although the Curriculum Committee of the Hamilton Community School Advisory Board has not as yet completed the 1979 program planning, a few standard activities will most likely be included in the general offerings. Last summer, the children of the neighborhood were served both breakfast and lunch through the cooperation of the Nutrition Division of the Child Welfare Department. The Nutrition people are already setting up possible programs to be operative this summer.
The Community School will again offer varied courses for cultural enrichment as well as “pure” education type activities. Children in the various area schools will be polled to ascertain their needs and desires.
The Parent-Child Pre Kindergarten program, sponsored last summer by Pet, Inc. was very successful in giving children a positive school experience before coming into kindergarten classes in the fall. Hopefully, this program can be expanded and offered once more. Parents who have children who will be going to school for the first time next fall (either private or public schools) are urged to contact the Community School for information on this most rewarding program.
