After School Programs at SEA

offer families the flexibility of engaging and meaningful care for their children when the school day ends. With a variety of options from 3:25 p.m. – 6:00 p.m., many families take advantage of these programs and students are eager to spend additional time with classmates and friends.

Extended Day

During Extended Day, students enjoy a snack, work on homework, and spend time with friends. 
 
Extended Day staff members supervise the completion of homework and can provide some learning support. Students who have music instruction or formal tutoring outside of Extended Day are escorted to their lessons at the appropriate times and can return to Extended Day upon completion. Extended Day staff members make every attempt to take children outside to play every day. In the winter, students with boots, a warm jacket, and appropriate outdoor accessories can play outside unless it’s extremely cold, and they even enjoy playing in the snow with appropriate weatherproof gear. 
 
Extended Day is open to students in Preschool – 5th Grade and offers a daily and half-daily rate.
