A little courage. A lot of possibility.

Learning a line. Trying a technique. Making something together. Small, supportive groups give your child room to explore a new interest and take pride in what they create.

  • Confidence to try. Creative projects with an instructor who helps them grow.
  • Something to share. Collaboration, conversation, and friendships beyond the school day.
  • A fresh experience. A rotating program each semester, with time to go deeper.
What might a semester include?

Past and possible programs include cooking, Game Club, Lego Club, drama and theater, music, art, and sewing. This is creative enrichment; homework help and tutoring are not part of the program.

Our Spring 2026 students closed out the semester with “Off to Oz” — a student-produced theatrical performance based on The Wizard of Oz, complete with lines learned, sets built, and a live performance in front of family and friends.

A few questions, answered.

What ages can participate?
After-School Enrichment is designed for school-age children, generally ages 5–13. The specific age range may vary slightly depending on the semester's program. Register here or send us a question for details on the current offering.
Is this only for Spark Academy students?
No. After-School Enrichment is open to all children — public school, private school, and homeschool. Your child does not need to be enrolled in any other Spark program to participate.
What time does the program run?
Every Tuesday from 4:00 to 5:00 PM, for twelve weeks per semester.
Do programs change each semester?
Yes. Each semester features a different program — it could be theater, cooking, art, games, or something else entirely. Register here to get started, or ask us a question to find out what's running right now and what's coming next.
Is there a performance or showcase at the end?
It depends on the program. Theater semesters include a live performance. Other programs may feature a showcase, exhibit, or culminating project. We'll let you know what to expect when you register.
Can my homeschool child attend Discovery Station and After-School Enrichment on the same day?
Yes. Discovery Station classes run on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons, and After-School Enrichment starts at 4:00 PM on Tuesdays. Some families do exactly this — their child attends Discovery Station classes and stays for the after-school program. It makes Tuesday a full afternoon of enrichment and connection.
