Our students enjoy weekly enrichment classes in art, music, physical education, library, and media technology taught by dedicated, subject-expert teachers. These classes broaden the curriculum and enhance your child’s intellectual, social, and physical development. Enrichment classes are on a five-day rotation for 45 minutes each day.

Our students learn in and out of the classroom. Our after school activities are led by our talented staff and proven community partners to provide a safe, supportive place for academic enrichment and fun.

One of our signature programs, Dragons After Dismissal, is a grant funded, 33-week afterschool program for up to 100 Govans students, K-5^th.  It Includes homework help, healthy snack and dinner, and services to support parental involvement.

Mondays through Thursdays, 2:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. (times may vary)

Dragons After Dismissal activities include:

• Hands-on STEM program through Let’s Go Boys and Girls

“The Dragons After Dismissal is an engaging, safe, and supportive environment with many enrichment activities to spark a child’s curiosity. The children explore art, theater, athletics, music, debate, student government, radio production, cooking, character education and STEM activities. And they connect to community resources that support them beyond school.”
