Please join us for the Balboa Parent Association meeting on Wednesday, May 30th at 7pm in the Auditorium. We will be discussing and voting on the possibility of having a private after school child care program on campus. STAR Education will present their proposal for the GALAXY After School Care program that would be offered from dismissal to 6pm.  (See the following links to view the GALAXY program at other schools:  http://www.fowhe.org/home/star-after-school-programs/ and marquezcharter.org/learning/star/).  Click here for the proposed Balboa contract and click here for the proposed tuition. Childcare will be provided during Wednesday's meeting.

Please RSVP with your name, number of adults and number of children attending to Aya Katzaroff at aosawakatzaroff@yahoo.com

This is the last meeting of the school year, so we hope to see you Wednesday night!
