After School

2023-2024 After School Program Details

After 3 at BCD is a program that provides after school care and specialty classes to students who are currently enrolled and attending BCD. After 3 at BCD and is divided into two categories: 
1.) Daily after school care
2.) After school specialty classes
 
Daily after school care is designed to serve families who need after school care on a daily basis for the entire school year.
As such, families must register for the whole school year and pay our unlimited use program fees. 
  • Daily after school care - unlimited use program - begins on Monday, August 28, 2023 and is open on most regular school days from dismissal time – 5:30pm (students must be picked up by 5:30pm). Dates when the program is closed and program specifics are posted on our After School webpage. 
  • Daily after school care is not offered on a drop-in basis or at an hourly rate. However, for families interested in after school care on a part-time basis, we offer "Stay-and-Play" or "After School Hangout" options under our specialty class enrollment. 
After school specialty classes are designed to meet the needs of families who do not need daily after school care - but would like their child to engage in after school activities one or two days / week. 
  • Spaces are limited and registration is taken on a first come - first served basis.
  • Specialty classes are typically offered in 4-6 week sessions. Families may sign up for the specialty class on a session-by-session basis.
  • Specialty classes are not offered for every age student. However, we do our best to provide a selection of classes that serve several ages and meet a variety of interests. In addition, we offer "Stay-and-Play" or "After School Hangout" options under our specialty class enrollment. Current offerings are listed below.
