After School
For families at Blossom Hill Elementary, staff pickup at dismissal is one option. Children from other schools are welcome too, with family drop-off from 1:30 p.m. The Blue Room stays open until 5:30 p.m.
How the afternoon works
Our staff meet the children at Blossom Hill Elementary and walk them over. They arrive to a snack and settle into the Blue Room, which is theirs alone for the afternoon.
What follows is hands-on: projects that take more than one day, things built as a group, and the sort of unhurried time a school day does not leave room for. The same adults are there every afternoon, which is most of why it works.
Early release days are included at no extra charge, so you are not scrambling on a minimum day.
Children at other schools are welcome too. A parent or caregiver drops them off from 1:30 p.m.
Custom schedules are available at different prices. Ask the Director what will fit.
