Buena Vista Schools gets a new before and after school program, and it filled up before it even began.

Third to sixth graders can take advantage of the program, which opens at 7am and closes at 6pm.

BV Schools partnered with Learn It Systems out of Baltimore to run the program, which combines technology and education.

Learn It Systems regional vice president Bruce Henson says, "It's exactly what the school needs, and the kids are very excited on getting started and technology-based programs are where education is going."

The program kicks off this Tuesday.

It's licensed to accommodate 40 students.

More than 40 have already signed up, so the program is working on expanding to allow 50 students.
