Field trip destinations included a local state park, a candy store, the fire department, and a local farm. The Eldora Eagle After School program resumed in the fall of 1998, with children in grades 1 and 2 participating. About half of the children who participated in 1997-1998 returned for the second year, and several new children enrolled. About 22 children have participated in the 1998-1999 program. We have introduced interest groups as a part of this year's curriculum.
Children spend one afternoon a week in interest group activities.
This allows smaller groups of children opportunities to participate in focused projects over the course of several weeks.
