The Village Extended School Program Student Comments I like my site manager at Plymouth. I think the after-school Program is perfect the way it is. Keep Nutrition and Cooking Club! Doing SPARK P.E. daily feels great! I wish it could be longer. The Village staff really care about kids. I love Village Clubs. Dance is the best! I joined the Village to improve my math and I have! I had the chance to learn drumming, at Village. I get my homework done during the Village and there are activity leaders there to help me if I have a question. Village is a wonderful place where you can learn.
