Member of Congress 57 February 18, 2005 To Whom It May Concern: This letter is to express my appreciation and satisfaction with the After School Program being held at Shenandoah Park. I have two sons ages 10 and 14 which have been attending the program for almost one month now. And I must express how excellent the reading, art, and computer sessions are. The fitness program being implied is such a great idea! Everything is always perfectly scheduled, and of course I must mention how great the staff is. Actually finding a place to have your children in, where you feel content, is not easy to find. Sincerely, Erika Tejeda 2757 SW 10 Street, #1 Miami, Florida 33135 305-510-7982 58 February 18`h, 2005 Department of Parks and Recreation City of Miami Marina Cadreche 1697 SW 16 St, Miami, FI 33145 To whom it may concern: I'm writing this letter to express my appreciation for the excellent Out of School Program that runs at Shenandoah Park. I'm very pleased with the educational component that the Children Trust Fund provides. I'm a single mother who works 10 hours a day; and this program has been helpful at providing the necessary tools to improve my child' s reading skills and helping him with his daily homework assignments. The staff has been highly receptive in attending my child's needs and accessible to my concerns and feedback. I would like to see more of this program in the years to come, Sincerely yours, Marina Cadreche 59 February 18, 2005 Dear To Whom It May Concern: My son Mauryce Alexander Colon attends the afterschool program at Shenandoah Park from Monday thru Friday. This program allows my son to not only associate with other children his age but it offers a great curriculum. I think it's great to know that there is a program out there that educates and teaches children even during after school hours. The science, computer lab, art and reading classes offered in this program have helped my son academically, his grades have improved within the past few' weeks. AIso, the snack is nutritious and excellent for my son's health. I think an excellent program like this should continue to expand allowing other children a chance to grow in a healthy, safe, educational and fun environment. Nevertheless, the fact that this program is funded by the Children's Trust it demonstrates that there are people who care for the children of tomorrow. Their success relies in not only the parent but also, with the help of the community. I thank you for supporting this great afterschool escape for our children. My son enjoys going there everyday and especially enjoys the wonderful field trips included with this program. 60 February 18, 2005 Children Trust Fund Shanondoah Park 1801 SW .21 Avenue Miami, FL 33134 To whom it may concern: As a parent of two children, I am very happy that both can participate in the after school program. Shanondoah's staff is qualified to be with children. Teaching them Reading, Math, and Science helps the children learn more. Their physical activities of Softball, Tennis, Racquet ball, and Cheerleading help the children physical. Strongly believe in activities for the children; besides their regular school emphasize that the children been attended to with care, giving them schedules of activities to do will keep them away from trouble. My children when I come to pick them up from this park, they want to stay longer to participate in the Reading, Science, Math, and the Computer Software Games. By the way 1 do not have Computer and Internet at home. As you can see my children benefit from coming to this park. At least once a week they are asked by their regular school of some research need to done in the intemet and asked to type the homework. Again, the after school program is so helpful for the parents that have to work knowing their children are safe and well taken care of . I do appreciate what is been offer to the children at the park. The staff I speak highly of. Thank you Mother of Monique & Odette Och a Eileen Padron Ochoa ��., ,?---" Ce11 305-479-6914 61 February 18, 2005 To Whom It May Concern: My daughters Griselle and Jinelle London() have been attending the after school program at Shenandoah Park since 2002 and now that the park has been blessed with a grant I have noticed many wonderful changes in the park and of course with my children too. Since this program was implemented at Shenandoah Park my children are more clever and willing to participate in more activities, They have also improved at school with their Reading, Math, and Science assignments. I hope that the City of Miami continues to work together with this park because I am sure that this new program has helped many families just as it has helped mine. Sincerely yours, Damaris=ssiere 62 City of Miam To Whom It May Concern: My children Jesus and Amber attend the after school program that the City of Miami provides. They assist daily activities such as dodgeball, computer lessons, and homework studies. The park. has a great reading instructor with patience and devotion. They also receive science and math tutoring. The park also provides educational field trips that my children enjoy. The staff is like family; they all know my children and I converse with them daily. They keep me aware of their behavior and progress in reading. My children look forward to going to summer camp. They've become social and happy kids, because of the aftercare. They have more friends in the afterschool than at their own school. Please make an exception for Shenandoah Park, for the best interest of the children. Not just my own but, for all the kids that attend the park. As a single mother I really do appreciate the funds that are given to the City of Miami. I benefit from it greatly and my children would be heartbroken if they couldn't attend next year. Sincerely, Arethyz Hernandez 63 Elaine Vasquez 4715 N.W. 7th Street #109 Miami, FL 33126 February 18, 2005 To Whom It May Concern: First and foremost I would like to thank you for implementing such a wonderful program at Shenandoah Park. My child, Essence Brown, began attending Shenandoah in January and the benefits have been amazing! I must say that in the beginning I was very worried about her moving from another park to Shenandoah, however due to the wonderful staff at Shenandoah, I have the utmost confidence in leaving my child with them. The reading, art and science programs are wonderful. Essence is improving her reading, is getting over her fear of reading out loud and absolutely loves the art and science activities. The staff there has put together activities in addition to the art, • science and reading programs. They had a Valentine's Day party, went bowling, and are going to Monkey Jungle today. The field trips on teacher planning days are wonderful! Essence is able to do her homework after she arrives at the park, and says that the staff is extremely helpful when she does not understand something. This is critical since I cannot pick her up until 6:30 p.m. By the time we get home, it's time for dinner, a bath, some quality mommy & daughter time, and then bed. My daughter has been ill with a stomach infection for several months and is also being treated for allergies. I have had to pick her up early sometimes to take her to the doctor and she actually complains if she hasn't completed the activities. On normal days she wants 'o stay later than 6:30 p.m.! Being a single mom, the fact that the program is free has helped tremendously, especially since I have been spending so much in medical costs in the last couple of months and am in the process of trying to buy a condo. I commend the City for implementing such a wonderful program with an outstanding staff! Once again l would like to Thank you. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. My daytime phone number is 305-579- 5722 or you can reach me at 305-725-4595.
