THE AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM
Merryhill After School program provides students with enrichment activities. Enrichment activities can be cooking, arts and crafts, indoor and outdoor games, team building activities, etc.
In addition to the enrichment activities, the After School program provides enrichment classes from different vendors that parents can add at an additional cost. Parents are responsible to enroll and pay for the classes with the vendors. Some of the classes that we have offered are Chess, Amazing Athletes, and Basketball camp. Information will be available in September for parents to enroll.
