Welcome to the Fall session of our After School Classes Program. The program seeks to provide a wellrounded after-school experience that supports the learning happening during the school day. There will be three sessions of after-school classes throughout the year- Fall, Winter, and Spring. The Fall session will have eight weeks, starting the week of 26 September through the week of 5 December.
