Extended Program

Schoolhouse believes the growth and development of students does not end at dismissal. The Extended Program provides a rich and thoughtful environment that recognizes both the need to continue to nurture children’s curiosity while also giving them a place to unwind after a day at school. The morning and after school programs are open to all students, K-8, at $12.50/hour. The morning program starts at 8:00 a.m. until school begins. The after school program is available from dismissal until 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.

​

Recognizing the varying needs of our oldest students, Schoolhouse offers middle school programming as part of the afternoon extended care time. For example, middle schoolers have dedicated space where they can engage in independent study, bond over shared interests, or create their own clubs. During the after school extended program, students bring their own snack, and have a mix of open or structured activities.

​

Enrichment Classes

Enrichment classes are another component of the Extended Program. These classes offer a selection of opportunities that reflect Schoolhouse’s belief that children learn best by doing hands-on projects that spark their creativity and curiosity. Typically, there are three 8-10 week sessions in a school year with classes that are one to one and a half hours long.

​

Classes vary from session to session, with some of them specifically designed for older students. Examples of these programs include Robotics, Hip-hop Dance, Chess, Guitar, Theater/Drama, Drawing, Leatherworking/Metalsmithing, and Design & Engineering. The programs are taught by Schoolhouse teachers or established external programs. Costs vary depending on the type of class.
