County Sheriff's Department, the California Highway

Christmas Show without a visit from jolly old Santa
Claus himself who came in with lights and sirens
blazing on the hood of Sheriff's Dept. and CHP
patrol cars. The children and parents were are also
treated to music and games provided by TNT

 "PAL Program
Spotlight"
December
2008
Empire
Elementary-After School Program
Empire Elementary School is one of SCPAL's longest
running after school programs. The program has had a
few changes in the last year with a new principle
coming on board and new site manager. The program
serves approximately 90 students a day and has a
long waiting list. The parents are extremely
supportive of the program and often assist by
volunteering or donating supplies for our Empire
celebrations. The daily schedule consists of snack,
homework assistance, arts and crafts and
recreational games. Before winter break, all the
students who attend the after school program
received an award during an after school assembly.
It is the belief of the Site Manager Alma Sloan that
all students excel in some part of their life and
should be recognized for all their efforts. This
belief helps to build a positive relationship
between PAL and the community.
