After School Program
Empowering Young Minds After School
Our After-School Program at Tigard Children’s Academy is designed to offer a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for school-aged children. Our mission is to provide children with a well-rounded experience that helps them grow emotionally, socially, and academically after their school day ends.
We understand that after-school time is crucial for fostering independence, creativity, and self-confidence. That’s why our program offers a blend of academic support, creative activities, and recreational play to keep children engaged and help them continue their learning journey. Our goal is to support children’s development by combining fun with education, ensuring that each child thrives in a balanced and positive atmosphere.
Children participate in homework assistance, where they receive guidance in completing school assignments, strengthening their academic skills. Afterward, they engage in a variety of interactive activities, including arts, music, sports, and outdoor games, that help promote physical, creative, and social development.
At Tigard Children’s Academy, we believe that after-school time should be a safe space for exploration and personal growth. Our program encourages teamwork, social interactions, and independent thinking while ensuring that children feel secure and supported in a nurturing environment.
By offering a program that balances fun, learning, and social growth, we ensure that children have the tools they need to excel both in and out of the classroom.
"Every child deserves a place to grow, learn, and thrive. Our After-School Program nurtures curiosity, builds confidence, and empowers children to succeed beyond the classroom."
A Balanced & Enriching After-School Experience
At Tigard Children’s Academy, our After-School Program is designed to provide children with a well-rounded environment where they can grow academically, socially, and creatively. After school, children participate in a balanced mix of academic support, fun activities, and relaxation, helping them unwind while continuing their learning and development.
The typical day begins with homework assistance, where children receive individualized support to complete their school assignments, strengthening their responsibility and organizational skills. Afterward, children engage in recreational activities, such as arts and crafts, sports, and outdoor play, which help foster teamwork, creativity, and physical development. This time encourages children to express themselves through music, dance, and visual arts, enhancing their fine motor skills and cognitive growth.
We also emphasize socialization and teamwork, providing children with opportunities to interact with their peers and develop important social skills. Whether it’s through collaborative games, group discussions, or cooperative activities, children learn the value of friendship, teamwork, and conflict resolution.
Physical activity is another key focus of our program. Children participate in active games, yoga, and outdoor exercises, promoting physical fitness and well-being. Additionally, we offer healthy snacks that help children recharge after their school day while teaching the importance of good eating habits.
Parents can stay informed about their child’s progress through regular updates, including behavior and activity reports. We also prioritize safety with strict supervision and qualified staff, ensuring that every child is in a secure and nurturing environment.
