Extended Day and Extracurriculars
Extended Day
Effective before and after school programs bring a wide range of benefits to children, families and communities. These favorable effects can include boosting academic performance, reducing risky behaviors, improving school attendance, promoting physical health and good dietary habits, and providing a safe, structured environment.
Before and After School Programs
Ricks Extended Day program (SPARK) offers a convenient, safe place for students to learn, play, and connect outside of the regular school day. We look forward to providing opportunities that allow students to explore new activities before and after school.
Program Hours

7:00 – 8:30 AM
SPARK and Homework Club after school:
