Join us for
the most
popular afterschool
conference in
the nation!
Dear Friends,
Afterschool is a distinct learning environment that requires specialized
instruction, materials, programs, and resources. Many educators are
looking for a one-stop shop…a place to get information, connect
with colleagues, and renew their commitment to the kids they serve.
Foundations’ trademark Beyond School Hours conferences
bring afterschool educators together to share ideas about
quality programming for children and youth. This year’s conference
is sure to please. Join us to:
- Discover the latest professional development, funding, and programming
strategies
- Get inspired by dynamic workshops and institutes, presented by
experts in the field
- Discuss research, curriculum, evaluation, and program improvement
- Visit model afterschool program sites in the San Francisco area
to see best practices in action
- Get the latest tools and trends in our exhibit hall featuring
quality vendors
- Refresh, renew, and have fun connecting with hundreds of afterschool
educators and stakeholders
Whether you’re registering for your first Beyond School Hours
conference or your 12th, this year’s event in California
will energize your work with kids. We look forward to seeing you!
Warmly,
Rhonda H. Lauer
Chief Executive Officer
Foundations, Inc.
