The Poughkeepsie Day School After School Program (the “After”) is available for children in preK through grade 6, and is open to the public. The After runs from 3:15 – 5:30 pm on full school days. Led by Spanish Teacher Christian Enrique Sauer, students attending the program enjoy a dynamic range of activities aimed at fostering creativity, critical thinking, and social interaction in a bilingual, art-focused setting. Time and space are provided for older children to do homework after they have had a chance to unwind. Children should bring a nutritious snack from home to enjoy during After. They can look forward to baking projects, rainy day movies in the theater, special event-themed activities scheduled throughout the year, and more. Sign up below!
