[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very few do the after-care program in middle school in APS, which is called check in. There are sports in APS in middle school but any that are tryout, a 6th grade is pretty unlikely to make the team. A lot of clubs meet once a week. The school musical/play is a good option in the spring (either cast or crew) and keeps them a bunch of days after school (not all). Otherwise, it's a looooong afternoon for them. Best case they are hanging out with friends but that can also sometimes worst case with the shenanigans they get up to.[/quote] My kid gets home at 3 so it isn’t that long of an afternoon, especially when he has sports practice. OP be aware that clubs don’t start right away or take breaks so you can’t rely on them all the time. My kid was so tired from getting up early and the chaos of middle school he usually just wanted to come home[/quote]
