Before & After School Care
 

Before School Care Program


Before school care is offered every school day morning beginning at 7:45 a.m. We offer a supervised, unguided program that gives children an opportunity to prepare for their day in a relaxed and playful environment. The program meets in the school library. Students may bring their own non-electronic games and books. The cost is on a per-day basis.

AFTER-SCHOOL WORKSHOPS for TCS Kids

2024 Fall FLyer!

Fall: 9/10/24-11/20/24

Winter: 12/3/24-2/27/25

​

The Workshops committee assembles robust after-school workshop options, including choices for all grade levels.

Registration for Fall Workshops is now closed. A flyer is attached for information purposes. Watch for our Winter Workshops flyer posting, along with links for registration and payment, later this fall.

After School Program "Kids Project"


Kids Project, our all-ages after-school program, is an outreach program of Chicago Danztheater Ensemble, an arts and theatre-based performance company. Since 2006, Kids Project's working artists have brought their love of the arts to TCS every day, offering programming across a wide range of areas, including dance, theatre, photography, painting, yoga, acting, and art with a common thread of creativity.  Cost depends on the rate of participation.  The program runs every day from 3:15 - 6:00 p.m. (starts earlier on Wednesdays) and can be used as a drop-in program, weekly, or daily as needed.   Click here to learn more about CDE!
