Students in our After-School All-Stars program, in partnership with After-School All-Stars Atlanta, enjoyed a celebratory field trip to Big Play yesterday.

Students bowled and played miniature golf and laser tag. The 69 students who attended and their teachers enjoyed the amenities and terrific hospitality. The Big Play team efficiently managed to get all of the kids involved in their activities quickly. Everyone had a great time. After-School All-Stars is a comprehensive after-school program that takes place five days per week for two hours per day at Sandy Springs Charter Middle School. It incorporates academic remediation and enrichment. Enrichment programs offered include eSports, theatre, Girls Code, Gentlemen's Elite, and More than a Game - a sports conditioning program and more! We implement this program in collaboration with the Georgia State University Research Foundation and After-School All-Stars Atlanta. Students show an increase in test scores and grades, a decrease in disciplinary infractions and an increase in attendance as a result of participation in this program. This program serves about 125 students. Thanks to After-School All-Stars Atlanta and Big Play for facilitating this fun after-school field trip. @big_play_atl @asasatlanta
