On January 1, 2007, San Diego Unified School District assumed full
responsibility for administration of San Diego’s “6 to 6” Extended School Day
Program (“6 to 6” Program) from the City of San Diego. To reflect this change, the Extended Learning Opportunities Department sponsored a contest to rename our “6 to 6” Program.
More than 500 entries were received from students, parents, community-based organizations and employees. A panel of judges made up of principals, parents, central office and school site staff, and a representative from the San Diego County Office of Education narrowed the field to six names. Student focus groups at both elementary and middle schools provided feedback in selecting the winning name: PrimeTime Extended Day Program.
The winning entries were submitted by a teacher at PB Middle School and a central office employee. As a result, PB Middle School and Birney Elementary School PrimeTime Extended Day Programs will receive a Purple COW (Curriculum on Wheels) and pizza party. The COW enhances classroom education with pre-developed math, science, and social studies curriculum.
PrimeTime provides academic support and enrichment activities before and/or after school for students at the middle and elementary level at 132 school sites. These services are available at no cost to participating families through the After School Education and Safety (ASES) state grant funds.
PrimeTime Applications for the 2008-2009 school year will be available at school sites and at www.sandi.net on March 5, 2008.
