AFTER-SCHOOL Activities

It's time to look ahead and register for our 2nd-trimester after-school activities! They begin after we return from Winter Break. Please take a look at the information below, then follow the links provided to register your student for their activity/activities of choice.

Families are billed for after-school activities as incidental expenses through their FACTS financial accounts. Families will receive immediate confirmation of their registrations which include the dates of each chosen activity.

Please note that listed here, the Middle School Play is an option. Students do NOT need to register for it at this time. It is free of charge and open to all students in grades 6-8. During Middle School Meeting on December 12, Teacher Margaret and Megan Balne of Masquerade Theatre will reveal the play for this year, as well as hand out information about the audition, rehearsal, and performance dates. It's going to be a big undertaking and a great show--we will need the help of all middle school students to make it a success. It is a large cast and we also need help from students who are interested in helping with sound/lighting/tech, stage management/crew, props, and scenery!

We have shorter durations of many activities to make way for our annual March Madness basketball fun. March Madness is available to grades PK-8 (in separate sessions). March Madness dates will not interfere with Middle School Play or other activities, so feel free to sign up for multiple activities.

11.  Middle School Play (6th - 8th Grade)

  • Dates and Times TBA

  • Our Middle School plays have been moved out of the classroom to the bigger space of our after-school activity program. Allowing for more rehearsals without eating into class time, our students will have the chance to shine both in the spotlight as part of the cast and behind the scenes as tech crew, stagehands, props department, and costume and scenery designers. We want ALL middle school students to be a part of this production. Teacher Margaret and Megan Balne of Masquerade Theatre will meet with 6th-8th grade students during Middle School Meeting on 12/12 to reveal the name of this year's play and provide dates for auditions, rehearsals, and performances. Plan on informational meetings and auditions in January and 2-3 performances in May, with at least 2 rehearsals per week. Middle School Play rehearsal dates do not conflict with any other after-school activities for middle school students, so feel free to sign up for others as well.

  • Hosted by Masquerade Theatre

  • NO COST/NO NEED TO REGISTER
