claxton After School Arts Program Catalog and Schedule
This is a tentative schedule (dependent on weather and instructor attendance).
We will be in touch with families as soon as possible if there are any changes!
The classes run each day from 2:45-4:00.
Fall 2025 catalog and schedule coming soon!
Daily Routines, Snack, and Dismissal Policies
Snack: We will provide snack for the students at each weekly session free of primary allergens such as peanuts and tree nuts. We will do our best to meet the dietary needs of each student, but if you know your child has additional needs that restrict what they are able to eat, such as braces, gluten-free, vegan, etc., we recommend that you send them in with a back up snack just in case!
Dismissal Policies: At 4:00, please park your car and walk up to the front door to pick up your child. It is important that we honor the time of our instructors and ensure that they are leaving by 4:15 pm each day. In order to do this, students MUST be picked up by 4:15 pm at the latest. We understand that unexpected things happen and there will be necessary moments of flexibility, but if late pick up becomes a consistent issue, we will enforce the following policy: families will be charged $1 for every minute past 4:15pm until their child is picked up to pay for the time and supervision of the instructor.
After School Arts History
This page is from the Claxton Elementary 1993-1994 yearbook. The caption reads:
"Begun in 1992, Claxton's Afterschool Arts Programs offer a wide variety of opportunities for students in all grades. Classes range from drama to dance, karate to math, quilting to storytelling, and many more are taught here by experts and professionals in the area. Our afterschool arts programs help make Claxton a true school of choice in the arts and humanities."

Please reach out to Ashley Wayne at ashley.lotter@acsgmail.net with any questions.
Click on the name of the class you wish to sign up for in the list below. This will take you to a Google Form link to register for that course. If the form submits, then you have secured a spot in the class and you should also receive an email confirmation when you have successfully completed the registration form. You DO NOT need to make the payment when you register. We will be in touch about the payment process within the next few weeks.
If the class is currently full, you will be prompted to complete the ¨Wait List¨ form and we will communicate with you about next steps if a spot opens up. Please fill out the wait list if you are interested in a class that is full! We do the very best we can to get students into classes and we understand the complexity of having siblings attend classes on the same day, so filling out that form is the best way to support us in this process and we appreciate your patience!
