The Park Buddies After-School program

The Park Buddies Program offers after-school homework assistance and enrichment activities on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Park Buddies Program evolved from conversations with the parents of Park Brook Elementary students to an after-school program staffed by community volunteers. The initiative involves collaboration between Northwest Suburban Integration School District, Park Brook Elementary School (in the Osseo Area School district), the Brooklyn Park Police Department, Park Haven Apartments and Timothy Sayen of Kukatunor.
