Afterschool Clubs

These clubs are open to any eligible SPS students who are not enrolled in the Community Schools afterschool program, El  Sistema program, or Apollo on the same day. Clubs are run at schools by trusted vendors. 

  • Clubs meet for several hours per week and do not provide full afterschool care coverage.
  • Students will transition directly from their classrooms to meet with their designated instructor.
  • Students will be dismissed from the main office entrance.
  • A minimum of 5 students must enroll in each club for it to run.
