Extended Day and Enrichment Programs

The Chestnut Hill School offers after school options for families who would like after school care, or for students who want additional enrichment in an area of interest to them.

Extended Day

We are pleased to offer an after school care program for students in Beginners through Grade 6. The Chestnut Hill School Extended Day program offers fun activities and games, a quiet space to complete homework, outdoor play, and enrichment programs. Throughout the afternoon, students have a balance of structured, thematic activities, quiet time to complete homework, and time to play and socialize. This flexible schedule allows for students to enjoy cross-age experiences and explore interests outside the classroom. 

Extended Day is offered five days a week, and goes until 6 p.m. Monday - Thursday, and 3:00 or 5:00 p.m. on Friday

In addition to the afternoon Extended Day program, CHS offers early morning care by special registration to all students from 7:15 a.m. to 7:45 a.m.
