Virtual classroom offered for kindergarten through sixth-grade students

Posted

The Apache Junction Parks and Recreation Department is hosting a new virtual classroom program created for kindergarten through sixth-grade students enrolled in school who need a supervised and safely socially distanced place to go to for their 9 a.m.-2 p.m. school day.

The program was designed to provide a safe learning environment for students in working families to participate in their school’s online learning class, according to a post on Facebook @ajparksandrec.

The city is modeling the program to fit the Apache Junction-area schools. It will be held at the Apache Junction Multi-Generational Center, 1035 N. Idaho Road.

For online registration go ajcity.net/296/Activity-Registration.

Virtual classroom program information:

  • Program runs 8:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Monday-Friday
  • Cost is $5 per day per child
  • Registration is open (online and in person)
  • Pre-registration is required
  • Students will bring their own learning materials and wear a face mask when needed.

The Apache Junction Parks and Recreation Department is to hold the program until Apache Junction Unified School District opens classrooms for in-person learning.

For more information, call 480-983-2181 or email ajpr@ajcity.net.
