Read this excerpt from a blog.

Many of our local schools are facing tough budget cuts. As a result, music and art programs are disappearing. Now the school board is considering dropping all after-school programs. This would be a huge mistake. After-school programs keep kids active, and they help keep kids in school. Research shows that the graduation rate for schools with after-school programs is sixty-five percent higher than that of schools without them. My friends and I all participate in after-school programs, and we are working hard to keep them in place. Please sign the petition at http://www.afterschool.org to show your support for after-school programs!
