    • Extending Learning and Community Schools (ELCS) is aware of the numerous operational closures at DPS Elementary Schools on Thursday, March 20th. This will NOT impact our program offerings (Discovery Link: AM, PM, ELCSports). All programs will be offered at normal times to ensure you have options for childcare and to allow your child(ren) the opportunity to engage in their after school passions.

    • We hope that providing your family with some options of child care throughout the day and keeping planned experiences for your child(ren) is helpful. If your family plans to use these programs (specifically AM programs) it is important that you pick up at the appropriate time. If we have students remaining in AM programs after the normal bell time, we will follow our late pick up process. If you will be utilizing PM Discovery Link we kindly ask that you drop your child(ren) off within 30 minutes of program start time/schools PM bell.
