AFTER SCHOOL CLUBS
ASL Class - REGISTRATION OPEN!
We are excited to bring an ASL Class to Honey Creek's After School Programming!
This class is open to students in 3rd-8th grade.
Join Chelsi McKnight, one of our DHH teachers, as she teaches students the alphabet, numbers, introductions, family, pronouns, colors, animals, school words, and bigger conversations about Deaf Culture and History. Chelsi will run three sessions of the same class with up to 15 students in each class. Hopefully we will have up to 45 students signing by the end of the year!
It is important to note that paying attention and being engaged is the best way to learn American Sign Language, so there will be zero tolerance for behavior problems. Students will be asked to go back to Aftercare if a major issue occurs.
When?
Session 3 - 15 spots (3rd – 8th grade) $50 per student - Mondays – Apr. 14, Apr. 21, May 5, May 12 3:30 – 4:30. *Session 3 will be open to students who have already participated in either Session 1 or 2. Please reach out to Gabi with any additional questions.
​
Where? Chelsi's room, room 32, in the purple hallway. Students should plan to meet Chelsi in the Aftercare room following dismissal, and then will walk to her room as a group.
​​
This will be billed through the Honey Creek PayPal. You MUST be registered for After Care through Honey Creek's CampDoc portal with the Health Profile completed and then you will be billed through Honey Creek's PayPal account.

Have any questions? Please feel free to reach out to Gabi or Chelsi!
