After Care at Boys & Girls Club of Lower Merrimack Valley

River Valley is excited to announce that we have partnered with the Boys and Girls Club (B&G) in Salisbury.  We are thrilled by the offerings the B&G has for our students and the flexibility and affordability it will provide for our families.   B&G will provide a bus to come and pick up our students from school after dismissal and transport them to B&G each day.  This will be a monthly fee paid directly to B&G.

You may register for  the Boys and Girls Club After School Program using the link to their website - www.bgclmv.org/

The benefits of the B&G program are numerous:

  1. The club is primarily privately funded and therefore participation is via an annual membership of $40/year per student. (If transportation is provided by B&G, there will be a transportation fee as well.  It is paid on a monthly basis but ability to afford this will not preclude any student from participation. We are not sure what the transportation fee will be if transportation were to temporarily be funded by River Valley.) 

  2. The club offers drop-in services so parents can use at their discretion. 

  3. The club is open to students of all ages, K-8.

  4. The club is open until 6:00 pm daily.

  5. The club has a myriad of enrichment activities and resources including: onsite music lessons, sewing lessons, foosball tables, a playground, a gym, a playing field, a dark room, a computer lab, just to name a few. 

  6. B&G serves about 125 students from the local area, opening up opportunities for our students to have a wider and more diverse network of peers. 

  7. B&G also offers fee-based afterschool programming on half days and during school vacations. 

 **All registration and payments will be made directly to Boys & Girls Club www.bgclmv.org/
