"Kudos to Boys & Girls Club..."

Friday, June 18, 2010 - 12:50 - Brianna
Dear editor,

My son, Trey, recently completed sixth grade at Napa Valley Language Academy. Seven years ago when he started kindergarten, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Napa Valley began a satellite after-school program on the NVLA campus. My son (and later, his younger brother) participated in the program during his years at NVLA.

I want to thank the Boys & Girls Club and NVLA site director Julia Matison for providing a safe and fun place for our children to be after school. As working parents, this program has been a lifesaver. However, this club is not a place to “park” children until their parents can collect them. For many students at NVLA, the Boys & Girls Club is their favorite part of the day. Organized games and activities, arts and crafts, healthy snacks and strong homework support fill the afternoon for these children. At a school with more than 700 students, this is no easy task. But the incredible staff at the NVLA clubhouse made it look easy and always treated the students with respect and care.

Thank you, NVLA Boys & Girls Club, for seven years of taking excellent care of our children and providing the families of NVLA with this vital program.
