After School

Welcome to BCD's extended day experience. We offer a variety of ways for students to stay and engage on campus and enrich their learning.

Create Your Child's Extended Day Experience

We know that the hours in a school day and a work day don’t always line up, and that’s true even when life is going just as planned. Our after school programs provide additional learning opportunities that can enrich a student’s education while supporting a family’s daily schedule.

Build a schedule in After 3, Enrichment Classes, or both!

Daily After 3 at BCD

After3 is a fun extension of the BCD day from dismissal until 5:30 pm.

TK-8th After 3 offers flexible registration options and includes homework time, free play outside, facilitated activities, games, crafts, and Science Fridays.

Preschool After 3 includes outdoor play and organized indoor activities with specially trained preschool facilitators.

Enrichment Classes

Enrichment Classes are offered for students in TK-8th grade and begin after dismissal. Selections include programs such as Taekwondo, cooking, improv, drama, chess, Lego®, art, STEM, and so much more.

  • Mostly 3:30pm-4:30pm or 4:30pm-5:30pm options

Students enrolled in Enrichment classes will be added to the roster for After 3 on that day before and after class.

  • Enrichment classes vary throughout the year.
