Cougar Club is now offered Monday through Friday!
Cougar Club is offered as a flexible after-school program. Cougar Club provides after-school care Monday through Friday until 4:30 in the ARC. This is the perfect opportunity for children to do homework and have some extra study time on an as-needed basis. Please note, there will be adult supervision and some homework help, but tutoring services will not be provided during Cougar Club. Younger children and older children will be in designated areas to allow for study time and play time in age-appropriate ways. You can buy a Cougar Club Pass for each trimester or for the full year and have your children attend as needed. A full-year pass will be $425/per child and a single-trimester pass will be $175/child. We hope this eases the afternoon schedule for working parents and those who have children participating in different activities.
