The Parks and Recreation Department in Tampa has announced that its After School Program still has space available for over 300 students for the 2024-25 school year. This program is offered at 24 recreation and community centers throughout the city.
"The After School Program is a fantastic free resource for all families," said Parks and Recreation Manager Regina McBride Smith, who oversees activities at 16 centers, including Cyrus Greene. "Each student will need a Rec Card, which is $15 a year per student."
The program provides homework assistance, computer labs with WiFi access, arts and crafts, indoor and outdoor games and activities, as well as sports for children aged 5-12 years old. Many centers also offer programming for teenagers aged 13-17; parents are encouraged to contact the centers directly to inquire about availability. Teen Rec Cards are free of charge.
Some specialized after-school programs may require an additional fee.
Currently, more than 1,200 children aged 5-12 are registered in the program.
