Private School Enrichment
Private School Enrichment Programs are once or twice-a-week drop-off programs. They can be secular or religious in nature and the classes offered are generally more expansive than the public school enrichment programs. Classes can be taught by licensed public school teachers or parents. These programs are paid out-of-pocket and can accomodate students from as young as Pre-K to 12th grades. Classes generally include academic subjects, such as history, science, language arts, and elective classes, such as Bible, technology, character, photography, cooking, sewing, self-defense, writers workshops, and more.Legend
