First Regular Session, 92nd General Assembly
FORTY-SEVENTH DAY, Monday, April 7, 2003
Speaker Hanaway in the Chair.
Prayer by Father David Buescher.
This House, O God, again needs Your spirit. We count on Your presence in these difficult days of our state and for our nation. For our country and for the people of Iraq, we pray for a peaceful end to hostilities and open doors to new and creative beginnings.
For this our state, we invite even more wisdom and courage for these our representatives to continue to devise, discuss, and decide on plans which will help all our citizens, whatever their age, race, creed, or socio-economic status. In any insecurity, plant deeply a sense of belonging with You, of being home, always, with You, and consequently with each other. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.

WHEREAS, according to the National Center for Juvenile Justice, children are at greater risk of being involved in crime, substance abuse, and teenage pregnancy in the hours after school, especially between the hours of 3 p.m. and 4 p.m.; and
WHEREAS, the most common activity for children after school is watching television, resulting in an average 23 hours of television watching per week; and
WHEREAS, the parents of more than 800,000 Missouri school-age children work outside the home; and

WHEREAS, the United States Departments of Education and Justice report that children in quality out-of-school programs have better academic performance, school attendance, behavior, and greater expectations for the future; and
WHEREAS, children who attend high quality out-of-school programs have better peer relations, emotional adjustment, conflict resolution skills, grades, and conduct in school compared to their peers who are not in out-of-school programs; and
WHEREAS, children who attend out-of-school programs spend more time in learning opportunities, academic activities, and enrichment activities, and spend less time watching television than their peers; and
WHEREAS, children who attend out-of-school programs miss fewer days of school, have better homework completion, better school behavior, and higher test scores; and
WHEREAS, the United States Congress has recognized the beneficial impact of out-of-school programs to our youth, and has increased the funding of out-of-school programs administered by the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education; and
WHEREAS, 92% of all Americans believe there should be organized activities for all youth during out-of-school hours; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the committee continue and expand the in-depth studies conducted by the prior Joint Interim Committee on After-school Programs and to make a comprehensive analysis of the quantity and quality of Missouri out-of-school programs, including the solicitation of information from appropriate state agencies, public schools, youth development organizations, law enforcement agencies and juvenile officers, youth development and education experts, and the public (including youth) regarding the status of out-of-school programs; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the committee, in consultation with the Departments of Elementary and Secondary Education, Social Services, and all other relevant agencies, make recommendations for an efficient and effective development plan to provide the opportunity for every Missouri school-age child to access quality out-of-school programs and design a system to train, mentor, and support out-of-school programs, and thereby guarantee their sustainability; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the committee be authorized to hold hearings as it deems advisable, and that the staffs of Senate Research, House Research, and the Committee on Legislative Research provide such legal, research, clerical, technical, and bill drafting services requested by the committee; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the General Assembly endorses all of state government to enthusiastically encourage our citizens to engage in innovative out-of-school programs and activities that ensure that all Missouri school-age children are not only safe, but also productive when the school day ends; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the committee report its recommendations and findings to the General Assembly by January 1, 2005, and the authority of such committee shall terminate on December 31, 2004, unless reauthorized.
