LAST DAY TO REGISTER-STEM CHALLENGE AFTER SCHOOL ENRICHMENT (THURSDAYS)

REGISTRATION BEGINS FRIDAY, AUGUST 20TH AND ENDS THURSDAY, AUGUST 26TH

Kids are natural engineers!  Kids dive into Play Well STEM classes and exercise their innate gift for building. They come away understanding fundamental principles of engineering and physics. The experience boosts their confidence, creativity and ability to collaborate. Kids can't get enough!

There are three Thursday after school enrichment programs open to Centennial students: 

My First STEM Club (K-1) - 20 Student Capacity

NASA Academy Future Space Explorers (2-3) - 20 Student Capacity

CODE:BOT Coding & Digital Robotics  (4-5) - 20 Student Capacity

No more than ONE program may be selected per student.

If you decide to Enroll a Child to Participate in our After School Programs, at least one parent will be required to sign up for a parent volunteer shift as part of the after-school enrichment program.  Volunteer activities include help with check-in, snacks, clean-up, and check-out. 

Sign-up for the volunteer shift is available here.
