Lights On Afterschool by Guest Blogger, Casey Morgan







Lights on Afterschool was a hit!

Lights on Afterschool is an event that is celebrated by afterschool programs nationwide on October 22.

At Lights on Afterschool, we celebrated by inviting parents, community members, and administration to see what our Afterschool Program is doing. The parents and students enjoyed making Halloween crafts together as well as viewing the student’s crafts and projects that were displayed. In all, we had about 200 people at our event, which is awesome!

Our guests included Dollar Dog from Northeast Texas Credit Union and our very own Marty the Mustang Mascot.

Subway platters were provided by: Greg’s Miracle Mart and First National Bank of Hughes Springs


A BIG THANK YOU for everyone who came and supported this great program!!


A little bit about ACE:

These before and afterschool activities are based on research and best practices and include academic enrichment, challenging curriculum, and tutorial services. Our ACE, Afterschool Center on Education, helps keep kids safe, inspires them to learn, and helps with working families.
