Keep your student engaged and active while you tackle the day. Explore our after school programs with pick ups as late as 5:30 pm.

We know that sometimes the end of your child’s school day doesn’t always coincide with the end of your workday.

With this in mind, GNCS has created various Extend The Day programs suitable to working parents and guardians. And those wishing to engage their children with expanded learning opportunities. Through a mix of independent and organized activities, with both educational and recreational opportunities, our after school programs keep your child engaged and learning in a safe and nurturing environment.

Ways To Extend the Day

With this play-based program, we aim to provide our little tots a safe, educational, and spiritual place to grow and learn while their parents tend to their daily duties.

Activities include PE, art, and themed activities, as well as outdoor play on our 26-acre campus. We also stress service-based learning through play.

There are two ways to extend your Preschool student’s day:

Lunch Bunch:

Need a little more time before picking up your little one?  For students only attending morning preschool until 12 pm, who are not attending preschool for the afternoons, our Lunch Bunch Program is a great solution to extend your student’s day through the lunch hour. A great time for preschoolers to spend extra time with their classmates socializing, eating lunch, and playing in the gym or outside.

Students bring their lunch from home. Pick up time is between 12:40 pm – 12:50 pm

Cost: $300 for the year

Aftercare:

Need even more time? We aim to provide our students a safe place to grow and play while their parents tend to their daily duties with our hourly Aftercare drop-in program.

Pick up times are available between 2:45pm – 5:30 pm

Cost: Rates are negotiated with the Aftercare provider(s) and are paid hourly ($8/hr in 2021). Reach out to our front office for more information.

For our students in grades Kindergarten – 8th, we aim to provide activities and programs that will encourage your child to explore their academic and spiritual interests. With activities that include homework assistance, gardening, PE, art, and themed activities, as well as outdoor play on our 26-acre campus, we aim to provide our students with a safe place to learn and develop.
