Lutheran Social Services of South Dakota has
offered an after-school and summer program in
partnership with Southern Hills United
Methodist Church since 1999. The Southern Hills
After-School Program also became the first
South Dakota after-school program to be
accredited by the National After-School
Association in 2005.

Conveniently located across the street from the
John Harris Elementary, staff meet the children
after school each day and safely walk them
across the street to after-school care at
Southern Hills United Methodist Church.

The Southern Hills facility is well suited to
after-school and summer programming. In
addition to two classroom areas and an outdoor,
fenced playground, the program has access to a
large gym equipped with recreational equipment.

Southern Hills after-school hours are Monday
through Friday from the time school is
dismissed until 6 p.m. The program is also open
on many days that school is closed and on
holiday break from 7:00 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Statement and important policies.
