Welcome to the Sellwood Middle School PEAK Program

The Panther Enrichment and Academic Knowledge (PEAK) Program is a series of after school classes open to all Sellwood Middle School (SMS) students. Most classes run on a 9 or 10 week session schedule in the fall, winter, and spring, and require a fee that is used to cover class supplies, instructor fees, and classroom rental fees. Scholarships are available as the PEAK goal is to include every SMS student. There is always opportunity to contribute to the scholarship fund if you desire. If you are interested in a scholarship for a student, please email the peak coordinator at email below.

We launched a new registration system for PEAK called 6Crickets. Through 6Crickets you will register directly with the class provider and make payments through their Stripe payment system (we will no longer be using SchoolPay for PEAK classes). If you are a first time user to 6Crickets, you will need to create an account for your student.

To register for classes, click on the pink "Schedule and Register button or copy and paste this URL: https://tinyurl.com/sellwoodpeakprogram and it will take you directly to our 6Crickets Sellwood Middle School page for classes and registration.

Please email sellwoodpeakprogram@gmail.com with any questions, and thank you for supporting the PEAK Program!
