This year, the SAP program will be broken into two main groups - Kindergarten to 3rd grade and 4th through 8th grade.  This division will allow for the programs to fit the needs of the children even more!  The older group will travel on Tuesdays and the younger group on Thursdays.  Each group will participate in age appropriate activities based on the week's theme.
