The LPS after school programs are scheduled to start on February 27, 2012 - May 24, 2012. Application and descriptions can be found here.

Learning Prep School offers After School programming Monday through Thursday, beginning early Fall through May each year for all grade levels. On a daily basis, students have the opportunity to take part in both academically and socially enriching groups. Depending on the grade of the students, the programs available vary. However, all grade levels have the opportunity to join groups that focus on sports, creative arts, social development, and academic enrichment. For example, recent After School programs include: Girls’ and Boys’ Basketball, Cooking, Art, Woodworking, Sewing, Theater, Scrapbooking, iMovie, MCAS Tutoring in Math, and Fitness. After School programs are very popular with the students, and many sign up for more than one club. Approximately 150 different students participate in the various clubs each week, with many students participating in multiple clubs. Students are strongly encouraged to work on their social and communication skills in all After School programs. Learning Prep School staff run these groups and use this time to assist students in improving their nonverbal and verbal skills in a safe learning environment. In addition to improving social and communication skills, After School programs give students an opportunity to foster new interests and talents, while gaining self-confidence.

Students enrolled in After School programming report to their program at the end of the school day. They remain in their groups, engaged in activities, for the 90 minute duration of the session. Often, school communities provide transportation for students’ After School programming on the basis of need for further academic and/or social enrichment outside of the regular school day. If communities do not provide transportation or pay for programming, it is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to arrange transportation and submit payment for the student.

Learning Prep School offers several After School programs for the 2011-2112 school year, available for all Elementary, Middle, 8th Grade & High School students where indicated. Please take time to review all of the forms, as After School programming can be a wonderful addition to your child’s education.

After reviewing the information for your child’s level, check off the activities in which your child will be participating, and return all necessary documents to the Administration Office, Attn: Clara Caruso (x411) , including:

• Application
• Emergency/Transportation Information Form – Fully Completed

For all groups there is a maximum number of students allowed, so all paperwork must be in on time. No child may begin the After School program without submitting the Emergency/Transportation Fact Form and payment in full.
