Enroll Your Child

Thank you for your interest in joining the SAY Detroit Play Center!

As part of the umbrella of programing from SAY Detroit, we are happy to announce that we can provide this program free of charge.  However, since spots are limited, we are asking for the following commitments:

❏    Students must be engaged participants in all activities.

❏    Students must exhibit excellent citizenship.  This includes all participants being respectful to all young people in the program, all adults and interns, and to themselves.

❏    Students will report each day to the afterschool program no later than 4:15 p.m.  

❏    Students who are absent more than five times may face suspension and/or dismissal from the program

Joining means you are agreeing to support a loving, safe, and active community where students are expected to build their academic, social, creative, and athletic abilities. In so doing we thank you for helping to create a stronger, safer, smarter community for all of us.
