After-School Adventures 

After-School Adventures is an opportunity for your child to engage in unique and growing experiences after school. We will offer a variety of classes by the semester. You may register your child for a specific class that meets weekly over the course of a semester.  Enrollment in any class also includes the ability to stay in After-School until 6 p.m. on the day of the class. Information about After-School Adventures for the 2019-20 school year will be posted to My CDS and shared in parent communications.
