Rock Bridge
Rock Bridge Adventure Club meets at Rock Bridge Elementary, which is located at 5151 S. Highway 163. The average enrollment is 60 students AM/PM. Along with one full-time Site Facilitator, there are 9 Site Assistants at the school.
Rock Bridge Adventure Club meets in the school cafeteria, but we also have daily access to the gym, playground, and computer lab. The playgrounds are equipped with swings, slides, climbing equipment, tetherball and basketball courts. There is also a large field on the school grounds.
In the mornings, a parent or an authorized adult must initial the students in on a sign-in sheet. The sheets, printed in weekly increments, have columns for the student's arrival time and for the the initials of the person bringing the student to Adventure Club. A Site Facilitator or Site Assistant will initial in the student in the afternoon; a parent or other authorized adult must initial them out in the afternoon, noting the time that they departed.
In addition to the sign in/out sheet we also use a "Where am I?" pocket charts to keep track of the students. The pocket chart has 4 categories: Outside, Cafeteria, Gym and Home. It is the students' responsibility to change their own name tag when they arrive in the morning and afternoons and when they decide to leave one area for another. They must also inform a staff member when they leave one area for another; we utilize walkie-talkies so that we may communicate with one another and ensure a student's arrival from one area to another.

Rock Bridge offers students a safe, fun environment both before and after school. Students can choose to play sports, build with Legos, draw, hang out with friends, read, or do other activities.
