The Zone
is a free after school program that runs Monday thru Friday
during the school year. Program times are 3:15 pm to 5:30 pm.
The Zone program is an extension of the University of Minnesota,
Morris TREC program (Tutoring, Reading, Enabling Children). We
offer healthy snacks, wellness activities and homework time with
college tutors everyday. The program allows kids to learn about
themselves during Bonus Time Tuesday’s. Each Tuesday kids are
given the opportunity to learn, try or experience something new
and exciting. Whether it’s swimming, clay pottery, rock
climbing, science experiments or a trip to the St. Cloud
Planetarium, we always have fun!! For more information please
stop by to pick up an application or contact Andrea Hoogendoorn
at the Community Education office 589-4394 x.2234 or Steven
Sterud 589-4394, x.2230.

for you! The planning and transportation have been taken care
of. All you need to do is sign up early and get ready to have
fun! Children under the age of 15 years old must be accompanied
