Challenger After School Camps

What is Challenger? 

Challenger is an after-school enrichment program for students in Kindergarten through 5th grade. The program is housed at each of the district's elementary schools. The Challenger enrichment program is separate from the regular school day.  Challenger is an optional, self-supporting, academic program. The Challenger program operates daily during the school year from 2:30 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. Enrollment for Challenger is on a full-time basis during the school year. Enrollment is based on the expectation that students are able to actively participate in the program and meaningfully benefit from being with other children.  Registration forms will be reviewed for appropriate placement in the program. Site directors will notify parents when a student may begin. The daily schedule includes homework and snack time, healthy activities and Challenger curriculum.  Here is the Parent's Guide to help answer additional questions you may have.

How do I register my child for Challenger?

Send a completed registration form (pages A, B, C and D) to the attention of the site director at your child's school. The director's are listed below. Registration forms are in the office of our elementary schools, as well as online. When completed registration forms are received on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday,  there is enough time to set the account up for the student to begin the following Monday. The Challenger site director will confirm the start date.
