AfterschoolReimagined
Art, music, cooking, and Spanish. Every day, all in one place.
One afternoon, not five errands
Trade the weekly scramble for a single, simple pickup.
Piano on Tuesday. Art class on Thursday. Spanish tutoring on the weekend. Three drop offs, three bills, and a car that never stops moving.
We built something different. One place. One pickup. Everything your child loves, every single afternoon.
A Day at After Care
Homework gets done here. So does everything else.
Arrival and snack
A warm welcome and a family-style snack.
Outdoor play
Fresh air and free play outside.
Homework and study time
Focused homework help and quiet study.
Spanish class
A protected Spanish class, every single day.
Workshop of the day
The hands-on workshop of the day.
Closing circle and pickup
A closing circle and a calm pickup.
The Workshops
A different hands on adventure every day of the week.
CocinArte
Real cooking, real knives, real recipes. Children make arepas, empanadas, sushi, and tamales while picking up fractions, measurement, and the vocabulary of a Spanish kitchen.
Garden and Science
Planting, harvesting, composting, and hands on experiments. What grows in the garden on Tuesday often shows up in Monday's kitchen.
Art and Expression
Painting, printmaking, mosaic, and cultural traditions like papel picado and Frida inspired portraiture. Process for the younger children, technique for the older ones.
Movement
Soccer, basketball, yoga, and dance. Cumbia, salsa, flamenco, and folklórico across the year.
Project and Showcase
Theater, storytelling, and project work, ending with a share circle. The last Friday of every month, families are invited to a 30 minute showcase.
Not just Spanish in the background.
Most immersion after care programs mean well and end up with Spanish as ambient noise. Ours has a protected 30 minute Spanish class every single day, taught separately to K to 2 and grades 3 to 6, with a full scope and sequence across the year.
The rest of the afternoon runs in Spanish too. Snack, outdoor play, workshops, cleanup, goodbyes.
The weekly Spanish sequence
Immersion makes the language real. Direct instruction makes it stick. Children need both.
We come to them.
Getting here from school is already handled.
Jackson Elementary, we walk
We're directly across the street. A staff member meets our kindergarten, first, and second graders at dismissal and walks them over as a group.
Patterson Elementary, we drive
Our 16 passenger bus picks children up at dismissal and brings them straight to campus.
Another school, let's talk
We add routes based on demand. Tell us where your child goes and we'll let you know what's possible.

K through 6th grade
Kindergarten through 6th grade. A program that grows with your child.
Nearby schools welcome
Spanish Horizons Academy, Jackson Elementary, and Patterson Elementary families are all welcome.
