Oak Grove Afterschool Enrichment

Our Second Semester session of teacher led afterschool enrichment clubs will begin the week of January 13, 2025. Each club will run for 10 weeks. The meeting time for each club is 2:45 PM -3:45 PM on assigned days of the week.   Sign Up Here! 

The Oak Grove Foundation will provide leadership stipends to the teachers who plan and implement the clubs. There is a request for families to donate $75 per child and per club. This contribution will help to fund this initiative and other Oak Grove Enrichment opportunities. 

All clubs will have limited enrollment; however, must have a minimum of 15 students. Spots are on a first come, first serve basis!  Registration must be completed online (linked above and on the Oak Grove website).
