Pickup is promptly at 4:45 pm in the front lobby. A late fee will be incurred after a 15-minute grace period.
It is recommended to pack your child an afternoon snack, as most clubs allow time to eat while students are filing in and attendance is being taken.
AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS WILL NOT RUN ON DAYS WHERE THERE IS A HALF DAY OR NO SCHOOL.
Please note the dates of “No Class” for each activity. While most activities align with our school calendar, some activities run on a different schedule. Jami recommends adding the “No Class” dates to your personal calendar.
This course introduces students to the wonderful world of dough as a tool to expand their academic knowledge and build fine motor skills. Through guided hands-on instruction, students use their imagination to plan, construct, and build their own creations. The lessons use dough as a medium for students to explore math, zoology, and art concepts in a unique setting. The course culminates in a final chemistry engineering project where they design and create a personalized model to keep.

Girl Scouts is a way of life that brings out the best in your girl, even in the most challenging of times. While she’s learning about STEM, the outdoors, entrepreneurship, and important life skills, she’s discovering new ways to make your family and community stronger, kinder, and better for everyone. Together, they earn badges to reflect their successes and show the world what they’re made of. Payment is through Girl Scouts and information will be shared by Sheya.
