Extended Care and After-School Programs

The Extended Care program at Resurrection School strives to provide a happy, safe, secure, stimulating, and spiritual atmosphere for every child. The intent is to make our program as much like “home” as possible, while providing socialization and enrichment activities.

We are fortunate to have sufficient space in our Extended Care program so that there are spots for every student who requires care before or after school. If your need for Extended Care is unplanned or infrequent, simply call the office or inform your child’s teacher.

After-school Sports Activities

After-school Team Sports
Resurrection School makes available an extensive After-school Sports Program that is run by and supported by the volunteer efforts of school parents, alumni and friends. The program is open to all students in grades 4 through 8. Wherever possible, teams for each grade (4th -8th) are formed. This program allows students to participate in organized athletic competition against other Catholic and private schools in the area. Our no-cut program provides an opportunity for all students to participate, regardless of ability.

DanceMagic

DanceMagic provides onsite after-school dance classes for students in grades K-3. Taught by alum parent Karen Dycaico, the class focuses on Ballet and creative movement, incorporating jazz and world dances. Ballet warm-ups will be given to strengthen the child’s muscles and coordination. Creative movement and improvisation will be given to enhance self-expression and the imagination. Children will learn ballet stories and associate the music that accompanies the ballet. You can learn more at DanceMagic. Choose Resurrection under “Locations” for details about the program being offered here.

Choir

Our school choir is open to students in 3rd through 8th Grade. Students practice once per week after school and provide the music at our weekly masses on Fridays. There are opportunities for students who play instruments to accompany the choir as well.

Scouts

We offer Cub Scouts for boys in 1st through 5th Grade and Girl Scouts for girls in Kindergarten through 5th Grade. Parent volunteers are key to leading and supporting these Scout troops. Look around the school grounds and you can find numerous Eagle Scout projects!

Band Program

The Music School located next door to Resurrection School offers a beginning, intermediate, and advanced band program for students in 4th through 8th grades on Wednesday afternoons, our early dismissal day.

Information about specific timing of band practices and demonstrations of different band instruments is provided at the beginning of the year. Students perform at Resurrection for the Christmas program, and the spring talent show.

Middle School Dances for 7th & 8th Grade Students

7th and 8th graders attend dances with the other Diocesan schools at various times throughout the year. Resurrection School typically hosts the annual October dance, and school chaperones are present at all school dances. Students must maintain a certain grade point average and conduct grade to attend these dances or to participate in after-school sports.
