After School Electives

Dear Lower School and Montessori Elementary Families,

The Lower School offers after school electives each season for six-week sessions.  The variety of the offerings allows for all differing interests to have a chance to participate in a variety of electives which include STEM, art, and physical/sport themes.

We are thrilled to offer some wonderful after school elective opportunities for our friends in grades K-4. Electives vary in class size depending on theme and student/teacher ratio. Please note, there needs to be at least 5 students registered to run an elective and in order to participate in these electives, your child must attend school at the Cleveland Avenue campus.  We look forward to seeing their smiling faces enjoying our fall offerings!

Sincerely,

Monica Padmanabha 
Lower School Principal

After School Coordinator
