[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was shocked to learn that LAP actually does not have a designated spot in the new renovated school.  In the old school they had a large room for LAP only, and they had a lot of things there for the kids to use and do when they couldn't be outside.  And there was a separate space for the really little kids.  Now, LAP is roaming between the playground, cafeteria (which is insanely noisy) and the multipurpose room.  The new school is so spacious I really don't understand why LAP didn't get its own space.

Also to echo PPs, LAP is independent of the school and DCPS.  It is sanctioned by both, and coordinates with Lafayette and the principal, but not controlled or funded by DCPS or Lafayette.

I think there is interest in expanding LAP, but without dedicated space and more staff, it's unclear how that can happen.

I would also be surprised about a dedicated room that was more than just an office.  Why can't the program just use existing classrooms?[/quote]

+1.  Our ETOP DCPS has plenty of kids in aftercare, and using existing classrooms is key.  They could never fit them all into one dedicated space.[/quote]
