Afterschool Offerings

Picture
Picture
After school time, spent indoors or out, is eagerly anticipated and gives the kids a chance to play with friends, build structures, relax with a book, or work on a project. Your tuition includes supervised care before school (from 8:00 to 8:15) and after school, under the direction of our P.E. teacher Coach Johnson, from 3:15 until 5pm. 

An additional hour of care (from 5 to 6pm) is available for $7 per day per child. Parents may take advantage of this extra hour on either a regular or drop-in basis, and are billed monthly.

Enrichment Programs

We are very pleased to present a wide range of after-school enrichment opportunities for our students. These classes give our kids the freedom to express their creative sides and the chance to delve deeply into areas of their own interest. Some are parent-taught; others are lead by faculty members.
Current offerings include:
  • Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Club 
  • Computer programming (java)
  • Performing arts
  • Chess with the Berkeley Chess School
  • Studio art
  • Private violin and piano lessons 
Please note: Enrichment class arrangements, financial and otherwise, are made directly with the providers. GATE is not involved in these arrangements, and does not supervise your children when they are in these classes. We are, however very happy to make it possible for these classes to take place on campus! Contact Sandy for information about signing up or click here for course offerings.
