Club Dexter

If your child attends Dexter Middle School, we have a fantastic after-school program for your teen. Studies have shown that 95% of all teenage pathology (unplanned pregnancies, drug use, gang involvement, and other criminal behavior) occurs between the hours of 3 pm and 6 pm. This is a time period when many parents are still at work and their kids are home alone.

Club Dexter operates each day that school is in session, even "minimum days." It is a safe, fun, well-supervised program, staffed by wonderful recreation leaders from the City of Whittier's Community Services Dept. The program has grown tremendously since it's inception in Feb. of 2000. More than 100 kids attend each day. Homework is a priority. The Club Dexter kids also participate in many different enrichment activities, sports, educational and recreational trips.

Many thanks to the Whittier City School District for their support and to all the fine members of the City of Whittier Community Services Dept who staff Club Dexter. To find out how to get your child involved, please call (562) 325-5620.
