Middle School (3:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.)

Middle School students are always welcome at Stay & Play. They may check in directly after ASSH (After School Study Hall), or when the Student Research Center (library) closes at 4:30. Middle school students are often offered a separate, supervised study area, but are always welcome to spend time with our Primary School students, who love to play with the “big kids.” The fee for this program is also $8.50 per hour.
