Licensed Glendale Recreation After School Program (G.R.A.S.P.)
The Glendale Recreation After School Program (G.R.A.S.P.) provides children, ages 5-13, with a safe, fun place to go right after school. The program is based at licensed recreation sites, offering children various activities such as arts and crafts, homework help, board games, group games and educational projects, featuring special guests such as D.A.R.E. police officers and environmental professionals. The focus of G.R.A.S.P. is the total well being of each and every child, while the children experience the benefits of a fun, safe and social environment with positive mentorship from caring, adult staff.
G.R.A.S.P. is available at the following locations:
- Desert Mirage Elem. School, 8605 W. Maryland Ave.
- Sahuaro Ranch Elem. School, 10401 N. 63rd Ave.
- Canyon Elem. School, 5490 W. Paradise Ln
- Kachina Elem. School, 5304 W. Crocus Dr.
- Pioneer Elem. School, 6305 W. Port Au Prince Ln.
There are three programming options: a before-school program held 6:30 a.m. to school starting, an after-school program held after school until 6 p.m. and both the before- and after-school program. The before-school program and the before- and after-school program are available only at Canyon, Sahuaro Ranch and Pioneer sites. All the locations provide the after-school option and are also available during early release days. Select locations are available during extended school breaks and intersessions such as fall break. G.R.A.S.P. is licensed and regulated by the Arizona Department of Health Services, it qualifies for Arizona Department of Security (DES) assistance, and those interested should contact their DES caseworker.
