A+ After School Program

The A+ Program brings affordable after school services to children in public elementary schools whose parents work. To be eligible for A+, a child must attend a public elementary school. Both parents in the home must be employed. If a child is from a single-parent household, the parent living with the child must be employed, attending school, or in a job training program. Children of parents working in the program are also eligible for enrollment. A+ services are provided on regular school days, from the end of school to 5:30 p.m. There is a monthly charge for A+. For further information, call the A+ office at 254-7953. `Aikahi's A+ Afterschool Program is operated by DREAM Co., a non-profit organization that has provided child care programs during school holidays at Aikahi since 1999. Although the program has been contracted to a private provider, DREAM Co., the program's goals and policies are set by the State of Hawaii.
