Activities & After School Care
Overview
ISA offers clubs & care for students until 6pm.
The main ISA activities programme takes place between 3pm and 4pm on school days, with some activities running until 5pm, and after school care until 6pm. Please follow this link for a current list of ISA activities with times and durations, noting that this changes several times a year.
Elementary students must register on Powerschool before they begin their activities. Middle and high school students register for an activity after the first week. Before an activity season begins, the athletic director sends out a letter to parents explaining how to do this. This letter also outlines our seasonal sports and tournaments.
In addition, the ISA Clicc after school care programme runs between 3pm and 6pm for children from 3 to 12 years old run by CliCC. For more details contact the area coordinator, Emma Hardingham: emma@communitylinkchildcare.org.uk.
At the end of an activity, Elementary students must be picked up by parents - you can find the pick up points here. Students in Grades 6 and above are allowed to make their own way home.
