Excitement is bubbling at Tichenor Middle School this season as the school launches two new free programs for its students ? the Tichenor AfterSchool Program and the new Tichenor After-School Youth Leadership Development initiative. The goals are graduation, fitness and community service. Both programs respond to a community need, and the new opportunities are proving popular with parents, students and educators.

Sign-ups for the Tichenor AfterSchool Program have begun. Informational sessions for parents will be held from 3 to 4 p.m. Tuesday, August 28, and 6 to 7 p.m. Thursday, August 30, at Tichenor Middle School, 305 Bartlett Ave, Erlanger.

September 4 is the start date for both programs.
