PS 321 partners with Kids Orbit for a comprehensive on-site afterschool program, with a limited number of spots. You can sign up for 1-5 days a week. Kids Orbit has a site supervisor here and will maintain a one-to-five staff to student ratio. Children will be organized in groups based on grade. For grades 1-5, there will be a homework help time (during this time Kindergarten students will have story time or other activities). The rest of the afternoon will be spent in a variety of enrichments, such as arts and crafts, games, outdoor activities, drama, etc. Many more details are on the Kids Orbit website.
To learn more about and/or sign up for this program, go to the registration page on Kids Orbit. Look for PS 321 under the After School options. If you are interested in a scholarship, in addition to signing up with Kids Orbit, please reach out to Courtney Gilbert at cgilbert@ps321.info.
We have a number of off-site after school programs that pick up at PS 321, including CBE, Beansprouts, Mindful Sports, Game Lab, and others listed on our School’s Out Summer Camp and After School Expo
Chorus and Concert Band will be offered to 4th and 5th graders this year once a week.
These are lottery classes with high demand which means if demand exceeds space, the students will be chosen at random and those who did not make the lottery will be added to a waiting list. If spots open, the new student will be chosen at random among those who did not make it.
Applications will not be available until mid-October and dates/prices are still TBD.
Courtney is very busy at this time and will be reaching out later in September with further details. Please be patient regarding a response to any after school questions. Check back here for updates!
