Our after school program is based on a club model. Every student, from preschool – 8th grade, enrolled in our after school program will participate in a club or study hall. Clubs are designed to engage students and expose them to a wide range of extracurricular experiences. Each club session runs for approximately 2 months, and different clubs are offered each day of the week. Clubs are dismissed at 4:15pm for PK-grade 2 students and 4:30pm for grades 3-8.
Our clubs + after care programs allow students to stay at school until 6:00pm. Registration is required and is based on a monthly fee. You may select the days of the week you wish to register. For example, you may register your child 5 days a week, only on Mondays and Wednesday, or the combination of weekdays that works for your family. Fees will be billed with your tuition payments.
