Middle school and high school students, both new and returning can all meet at "Teen Talk" to listen to music, find buddies, and share school experiences.
- Fun for elementary school students (ages 6-11)
Elementary school children will have fun with crafts and other play activities under creative adult supervision.
- Child care for toddlers (ages 2-5)
Your young children will have plenty of fun and good care while parents attend the program.
Various community organizations will have tables or booths at the school to provide information and answer questions about their various services.
Interpreters will be ready to help in Korean, Spanish, Chinese, and some other languages.
Free passes for Bloomington Transit buses are available upon request at the time of registration. Parking is available at Binford Elementary School.
Be sure to stay for our free lunch! There will be various kinds of food, including pizza, plus good music and drawings for door prizes.
- Free Materials & Supplies
Children will receive free school supplies, such as notebooks, pencils, and more.
