Western Washington University Youth Programs will offer an early release program for students in grades K-5 this winter.

The program will be held Thursdays, Jan. 19 through March 2, from 2-4:45 p.m. on Western’s campus.

WWU Youth Program's Early Release Enrichment is scheduled to coincide with early release Thursdays and act as an alternative form of childcare, while providing an introduction to college life for Bellingham School District K-5 students. Students may register for any number of sessions.

Here are the Bellingham program dates and themes:

Jan. 19 – Trash to Treasure
Jan. 26 – The Shocking Science of Static
Feb. 2 – Under the Sea
Feb. 9 – Cultural Celebrations: Chinese New Year
Feb. 16 – Math-Magicians
Feb. 23 – Natural Disasters: Tsunami Edition
March 2 – Your Parent’s Genes

Students are asked to bring a rain jacket, healthy snack, water bottle, and a curious mind. The cost to participate is $30 per session. A discount of $5 each session will be taken off for those who register for all seven sessions together.
