St. Paul's Extended Day Program provides affordable, high-quality programs for students in a safe and supervised environment outside of school hours.
St. Paul's faculty members, area professionals, and college students staff our programs. Students can enjoy time on the playground, various clubs, music lessons, help with homework, games with peers, and much more.
Students can participate in after school Drama Club to scratch that performing itch and build some confidence on stage! These mini 6-week sessions are perfect for flexing those public speaking and creativity muscles. Each session culminates in a performance for family and friends.
Extended Day programs are typically in session even when school is out! Over spring break, students had a yummy pi day celebration, plenty of spring time crafts, and a March Madness students vs. teachers basketball game.
During an after school club, Lego Robotics, 2nd and 3rd grade students created original designs for the Lego League regional competition. Students were challenged to re-think the world of arts by designing a concert stage with programmed lights and motorized components. After the competition, St. paujl’s students visited Lee’s Summit High School’s Team Driven to check out their robotics workshop and hear about their design and construction process.
Art Teacher, Ms. Lynn, offers after school classes to help art-loving students extend their learning in painting, ceramics, stop motion animation, and more. These classes are perfect for students who are interested in developing their artistic skills. It’s also great for students who just want to dip their toe into the visual art world!
St. Paul’s Extended Day used MLK Jr. Day as inspiration to serve others in our community! Students created 100 sock kits for unhoused neighbors and made dozens of dog treats for KC Pet Project. Students also picked up litter on the streets surrounding our campus and organized shelvesat the St. Paul’s food pantry. We’re grateful to Dr. King for inspiring us to make the world a better place for everyone!
The popular Holiday Gift Making Class was a success. Students were able to make lots of fun and personalized gifts for their family and friends. Students made snowman gift bags, painted fun Santa window clings, decorated hot cocoa bombs, decorated a sweater for their elf on the shelf, and more!
