(KNZA)--The Prairie Hills USD 113 Board of Education has approved an after school program at the Axtell school for the 2019-20 school year.
The approval came during a special meeting Monday evening.
Axtell Principal Jayson Tynon presented the proposal for the After School Stars Program for students in kindergarten through 5th grade.
He said its being offered because many families in Axtell have parents who work out of town.

It will provide educational activities along with some free time for students.
The cost for families will be $5 per day per student.
