Welcome to the Chestnut Hill School Afterschool Program, a place where students can participate in diverse classes in the arts, opportunities for athletic skill building, and academic support, during the hours following school. We also provide professional lessons in areas such as karate, dance, rock band, and ice skating. This facet of our program means that many of the extracurricular interests that children might pursue elsewhere can be met here at the school. We also hope to serve you, our families, by offering a drop-in service, in which families can pay an hourly rate on a day to day basis for childcare. The flexibility of the program allows you to design an afterschool experience that is right for your child, with a combination of structured classes as well as more relaxed “down time.” Whether you have been a regular participant in the afterschool program, or this is your first time considering afterschool, I urge you to peruse the brochure and discover the ways in which our program might meet your needs.

Afterschool should provide a fun, enriching experience, that also complements the school’s overall approach to learning. I hope you will join us daily this year, or even just occasionally to see what afterschool has to offer! I look forward to seeing you!

Angie Wilson
Director of the Afterschool Program
