School's out, let's dance

PORT BYRON - Ten students in a cooking class taste sweet leftover batter from mixing spoons and admire their freshly baked muffins. Meanwhile, 10 children in a woodworking class measure and cut Plexiglas.

It's a typical day after school at Port Byron, where students in grades four through 12 are learning unique skills and getting a dose of conventional education at the district's new after-school program.

The program, new as of Nov. 2, is funded through state and federal grants, said Julie Donofrio, the program's director. All Port Byron students are eligible. It is free of charge to the students and is available on a first come, first serve basis.
