The Need

Us Apart

The After-School All-Stars Las Vegas (ASASLV) began in 1995 as “Inner-City Games” when philanthropist and community leader, Mrs. Elaine Wynn, brought the organization to the underprivileged youth of Las Vegas. During the first decade of service to the community, we took more than 100,000 inner-city kids under our wing and provided them with free educational, athletic and cultural programs in a safe and encouraging environment. Based on research and experience, it became clear that the after-school hours were when our children needed us most. In 2003, the organization expanded services from weekend sports clinics to full comprehensive after-school programs, and changed our name to the “After-School All-Stars Las Vegas”.

After-School All-Stars Las Vegas is the only non-profit organization to offer free comprehensive after-school programs in the Las Vegas Valley. Other agencies offer similar activities, but on a fee-for-service basis. Furthermore, other agencies typically do not offer an academic component with certified teachers that actively engage students in constructive programs. These agencies certainly have a place in our community; however, ASASLV provides low-income disadvantaged students with the opportunity to participate in free extracurricular and educational activities, field trips, opportunities for youth performances and opportunities to attend community events. With seventeen years of experience, ASASLV is proud to be making an important impact on the youth in our community.

Across the United States, After-School All-Stars serves more than 92,000 youth at nearly 400 Title 1 school sites. Programs are managed by 13 individual After-School All-Stars chapters working in tandem with the National Office to maximize the organization’s efficiency and ensure quality programs for every child. Chapters include: Atlanta, Chicago, Hawaii, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, New York, North Texas, Ohio, Orlando, San Antonio, San Diego, San Francisco/Bay Area and South Florida.

Three hours a day can literally change a child’s life. It is estimated that more than 15 million school-age children are on their own after school, and among them are more than 1 million in grades k through 5. Furthermore, in Nevada, 28% of k-12 youth are responsible for taking care of themselves after school (Afterschool Alliance, 2009). After-school programs lower crime rates, help kids graduate as well as gain the skills and mentors to prepare them for the 21st century workplace. After-school programs have also been found to develop resilience in adolescence by providing opportunities for growth, increasing academic achievement, providing a safe environment and creating supportive relationships. The purpose of After-School All-Stars Las Vegas is to provide students with the opportunity to engage in positive, constructive activities after school that have been proven effective in deterring delinquent behaviors.

Our goal is to identify and fuel our student’s individual passions

by tying their interests to tailored academic support,

enrichment activities & sports.

A LETTER FROM OURLEADERSHIPCo-Chairs, Elaine Wynn & John Pucci

Elaine Wynn | Co-Chair John Pucci | Co-Chair

We are excited to present you with the After-School All-Stars Las Vegas (ASASLV) 2011-2012 Annual Report. This year, we were incredibly encouraged and motivated by the work and impact that this organization has made in providing free comprehensive after-school programs for more than 6,000 youth at fourteen at-hope schools in the Clark County School District. Our programs provide youth with positive options and alternatives after their school day ends and gives them unique opportunities to continually learn, grow and try new things in order to keep them engaged.

Our school-based structure and high-quality programs truly set us apart. Our enrichment programs include a wide range of activities from a drop-out prevention program called We Are Ready, to an outdoor wilderness exploration program called Lifetime Adventures, to a media studies and video production program called Media All-Stars, to just about any after-school program you could imagine including sports, music, dance, cooking, art, drama and academic-based programs focused on homework assistance. We are in the business of helping our community’s youth succeed by giving them skills, learning experiences and positives alternatives during out-of-school time.

We are honored to be a part of a national organization that is not only able to change lives, but focuses on developing our youth to ensure that they are safe, provided with positive opportunities and encouraged to succeed in school. We are grateful to the foundations, corporations, board members, community leaders, donors, volunteers, principals and site leaders that support our mission and efforts. None of this is possible without you. Together we look forward to another successful year of empowering the youth of Las Vegas.

Teacher’s Note:

A 3rd grade student transferred to our school from California where he was living with a physically, mentally, and emotionally abusive parent. The student missed a lot of school. When he was in school, he displayed challenging behaviors that interfered with his education. He was ultimately retained, and continued to struggle. Earlier this school year, the student transferred to our school and began attending the after-school program on a consistent basis. When he started the after-school program, this student was reading 2 words per minute, and did not know his basic addition facts. At last review, he was able to read 15 words per minute, solve multi-digit addition problems, and has shown significant improvement in his behavior both in his regular school day classroom, and in the after-school program. He is making friends, and his self-confidence has improved greatly. Even though this student has experienced many negative circumstances in his life, the after-school program and its staff has provided consistent support and stability which has contributed to the overall growth we have seen in this student.

-Robin Hansen Teacher, C.P. Squires Elementary School

After-school Site Leader’s Note:

We had a mother come to us concerned about her son’s weight and wanted us to try to get him in a physical fitness class to help him out. He has been taking Hip Hop every session and last session he attended Wii Zumba as well. He is thrilled to have fun and sweat at the same time. One of the mother’s friends commented the other day on how much weight he has lost since attending the after-school classes. We have also noticed that when he signs up for a new session he always chooses a physical fitness class as his first choice.

-Christine Pang & Tina Fox Site Leaders, Martinez Elementary School

Specialty Programs

The Media All-Stars Program offers students opportunities to learn about broadcast journalism, print media, advertising, film, editing, radio, television and digital media. The students in this program create Public Service Announcements, short films and broadcasts. The Media All-Stars are provided with opportunities to expand their media knowledge by touring the local newspaper facility, local television news stations, advertising agencies and the journalism and media studies department at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

We Are Ready is a middle-to-high-school transition and drop-out prevention program for 8th grade students who exhibit early warning signs associated with dropping out of school. This curriculum is based on high school readiness, study skills, options after high school and career exploration. Students in the We Are Ready program have opportunities to go on incentive field trips, tours and hear from guest speakers. This program exposes students to unique careers and interests to motivate them to stay in school and achieve their full potential.

CampUs Las Vegas is a one-week summer program held at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas to ensure our graduating 8th grade students are well prepared to enter and graduate from high school. The purpose of this camp is to focus on students who are at-risk of dropping out and prepare them for academic and social success in high school and beyond. This camp focuses on building relationships with role models and mentors from their communities, study skills, leadership skills and college preporatory skills. Going to the movies, swimming, sports, improv comedy and other fun activities are also integral pieces of CampUs Las Vegas.

Since 2007, Lifetime Adventures’ mission has been to expose underserved middle-school students to environments outside of their neighborhoods and to promote youth outdoor learning and wilderness travel. The program uses outdoor activities as a tool to develop positive social skills that transfer directly to each student’s day-to-day life. Youth involved in Lifetime Adventures are educated about responsibility, teamwork, trust, personal growth, community service learning and stewardship for the environment. Students also take several field trips to places such as Mt. Charleston and Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area.

Student Success Stories

Arnold & Jonas

Jonas

Hello, my name is Jonas. I attend Bridger Middle School, which is a great school.

But what makes it a greater school is After-School All-Stars Las Vegas.

After-School All-Stars Las Vegas is an organization that lets kids participate in different types of classes after

school. Classes like volleyball, chess, soccer, Mad Science and much more.

I take Media All-Stars and Flag Football.

I was the 2011-2012 National Youth Advisory Board Member of the Las Vegas Chapter. This means that other representatives, along with myself, discussed with the staff of After-School All-Stars what we thought about the program through a student’s eyes. We discussed what the kids liked and disliked. Being in this program, I have learned many new things, such as being a better role model for my peers, having responsibilities, publicly speaking and being confident in myself. This position has provided me with opportunities like meeting Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger while snowboarding at Mammoth Mountain, going to the University of Chicago and meeting the other representatives from their chapter, and meeting Mrs. Elaine Wynn and Sheriff Gillespie. Sheriff Gillespie arranged for me to participate in a fly along in a helicopter and I was on Channel 13 News. As you can see, I have been able to do many things and this is because of the After-School All-Stars.

After-School All-Stars provides kids with more than just after-school activities. It also gives kids something to do after school. Most kids just go home, do their homework, watch TV, play video games and computer games and eat. But with After-School All-Stars, kids can get their homework done while learning new things and getting active. The program also keeps kids out of danger. A lot of violence and drug use happens after school, but After-School All-Stars keeps kids away from this by providing fun and educational classes.

Lastly, I would like to thank the After-School All-Stars for enabling our school and schools across the nation to have this program. Thank you for the opportunity to explain why I enjoy the After-School All-Stars and what it has done for me.

After-School All-Stars provides kids with

more than just after-school activities.

My name is Jose. I go to Orr Middle School. I like the after-school program because it has helped with my grades. It helped me go from failing my classes to passing my classes. My teachers are proud of me because that is a big jump. Then I joined basketball and I am doing good in school and on the court. The after-school program has helped me stay off the street. I have not gotten into trouble since the program started. The program has helped me a lot.

I am Ana and I go to Orr Middle School. When I was in 6th grade, I was very shy. I didn’t really have many friends and I didn’t talk much. One of my friends told me to sign up for the after-school program. We signed up for Homework Help and Computers. I was really nervous to go because my friend was the only person I knew. Then we were introduced to some new people. I was really happy that I was starting to get all these new friends. Within a few days, I was gaining new friends and self-confidence. After-School All-Stars gave me the confidence I needed to try out for the soccer and basketball team. The after-school program helped me overcome being shy and I am thankful for the after-school program.

Hello, my name is Nadia. I am a student at Clark High School, attending as a freshman. Last year, I was at Cashman Middle School. At Cashman, I attended Lifetime Adventures, as part of the After-School All-Stars program. Lifetime Adventures has given me amazing opportunities. For example, I have met exceptional people and I have gone to conferences that have made me more open-minded. Lifetime Adventures has had an important impact on my life.

During middle school, I joined Lifetime Adventures because it seemed interesting and I was excited to go on trips. I had never been out of the state or anywhere outdoors. My first adventure might seem little, but it was dream come true. The first trip was located at Red Rock National Conservation Area. I thought I was not going to make it because I had never hiked. But I made it and hiking became my greatest fascination in life.

Lifetime Adventures has also taught me about preserving outdoor areas, diversity, teamwork, preventing obesity, and why it is important to stay in school. I am thankful for Lifetime Adventures and every adult that has made me who I am.

Research shows America is facing a severe high school dropout crisis, with 1.2 million students dropping out each year – one every 26 seconds. Many of these students are low income, minorities who live in urban areas. Sadly, a majority of high school dropouts do so during or directly after 9th grade.

After-School All-Stars Las Vegas launched a unique summer program to ensure our graduating 8th grade students are well prepared to enter and graduate high school. Building on the National ASAS We Are Ready curriculum offered during the school year, ASASLV created an intensive one week model summer program focused on preparing entering 9th graders for high school, college and careers.

The goals of CampUs© were to:• Prepare students for academic & social success in 9th grade.• Build relationships between campers and role model-mentors from their communities who are currently succeeding in high school and in college.• Teach students the study, leadership & college application skills they need to succeed. • Offer fun, creative programs in ASAS Program Model areas of Service Learning, Career Exploration and Sports-Based Youth Development.

During the week of July 9-14, 2012, 70 ASASLV students entering 9th grade were invited to participate in CampUs Las Vegas FREE OF CHARGE. The camp took place at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. The week consisted of daily high school transition sessions, college readiness sessions, leader-ship activities, sports and swimming activities, career exploration speakers and much more.
