Extended Day Offerings
2011 Fall Semester
This semester we are offering the highest number of clubs and activities that we have ever hosted!
I hope you can find one or more clubs below for your child.
Unless otherwise stated the times for clubs will all be from 3:00-4:00 and they will run until the
end of the first full week in December (closing on Friday, December 9). Some clubs start next week while
others start the week of September 12.
Please fill out the half-sheet sign-up form and return if you are interested in having your child
participate in one or more of the clubs. Some clubs have limited space and may fill up quickly. Be sure to
check the applicable grade levels below to be sure your child fits the description.
We will send you a confirmation once the club lists are set and your child has been enrolled.

get your confirmation.
