About
The AIM After School Program offers time on the playground, music exploration, art classes, and sports programs. Activities are coordinated with the consideration of each participant’s interests. Once an application and paperwork are received, the participant begins the After School Program on a trial basis.
• Ages: 5–18 years old
• Schedule: Open Monday–Friday from 2:00pm–5:00pm during the academic school year; the program follows the Saratoga School District calendar and is available to individuals with developmental disabilities in grades K–12
Staff may assist with transporting participants from their school to the Saratoga STRIVE location, and transportation is not provided on half days, when drop off at the Saratoga STRIVE location can be arranged. All families must pick up their child by 5:00pm. Participants’ medical or dietary precautions and adaptive equipment needs, including any booster seat or special supports needed in a vehicle, must be provided in the application. Staff cannot administer any medications during program hours, and any seizure lasting more than 5 minutes results in a 911 call, with staff accompanying the participant until a parent or guardian arrives. A calendar of closure dates is sent out by email, and in the event of a closure due to inclement weather, an email is sent. Media consent allows AIM to take and use photographs or videos of participants for publicity on the website, social media, and at trainings and conferences, and participants are always shown in a positive and uplifting way without last names or personal contact information being shared.
AIM Services, Inc. states that it is dedicated to partnering with people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to recognize their strengths, pursue their goals and dreams, and live independent, fulfilling lives. Community Habilitation, Respite, Recreation, and After School are overseen by Alexandra Girard, Assistant Director of Community Habilitation & Respite, and the After School contact is Caryn Bidwell ([email protected]).
