BOULDER CLUB

School schedules do not always fit adult work schedules. For parents in need of extra assistance at the beginning or end of the school day, Boulder Club, a before and after school program, is available. Here students have a chance to finish homework assignments, giving families more free time at the end of a busy day. After completion of homework assignments, students may play games and participate in activities that are academic in nature. Boulder Club is a service open to students in kindergarten through 8th grade. Care is offered before school from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. and after school from 3:15 p.m. to 6:15 p.m. Sessions are also available on most Early Release days.

Morning sessions cost a daily flat rate of $3.50. Afternoon sessions cost $6.00 per hour. For families with more than one child, a 20% sibling discount is applied to the fees of the oldest child. There is no registration fee for Boulder Club. For more information about Boulder Club, please contact the school office at (623) 466-8855 or email us:

ALL DAY KINDERGARTEN - FREE

Enhance education with thematically based units of literature, science, social studies, art, music, and P.E.

The school day for students in kindergarten ends at 11:10 a.m. Families interested in an extended day for their kindergarten child may take advantage of the FREE full day kindergarten program. This enables students to remain on campus while enhancing their education with thematically based units of literature, science, social studies, art, music, and P.E. Full day kindergarten runs from 8:00 a.m. to 2:15 p.m.

 

ACADEMIC ARCADE

Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade students rotate through crafts, story times, and thematic activities.

Students in kindergarten, first, and second grade are released from school at 2:15 p.m. Grades 3 – 8 are dismissed at 3:15 p.m. Kindergarten, first and second grade students may extend their school day for one hour with the Academic Arcade. The Arcade offers a relaxed, less structured atmosphere where learning continues in a more casual environment. Students rotate through crafts, story times, and thematic activities. Structured outdoor activities are also scheduled, giving young students a chance to burn off excess energy.

  • The fee for this program is $40 each month of the ten-month school year, with no registration fee.  If your child is enrolled in Painted Rock Academy and you would like to enroll in this program, please complete the Academic Arcade Registration Form that is posted in the Document Center.

Why our students love us!

My daughter has gained confidence in handling her homework and has become more independent, even reading bedtime stories on her own. Moreover, the teachers not only focus on academic education but also instill important values and manners in the students, which is invaluable to me as a parent.

I'm so thankful for this school. Having my daughter in Pre-k and now kinder, I'm so impressed that she's already reading!
