• Homework Help

  Beginning Monday September 18, 2023, from 4:00 - 4:30 pm

  All 3-8 grade students attending After School will attend Homework Help each day. If students do not have assigned homework for the day, they will be encouraged to read, write, draw, or do quiet productive activities. As the year progresses there will be opportunities for students to use their Homework Help time to volunteer with the Preprimary After School students. If your student is attending an activity that happens during Homework Help, they will be offered a quiet space to complete their homework once their activity has concluded.

• Robotics Club

  Led by 7th/8th Grade Math and Science Teacher Kurt Spieles, this year-long program gives Middle School students the opportunity to explore robotics and compete in a regional competition!
  
  In the fall, club members will prepare to compete in the First Lego League Regional Robotics Competition, which is held December. Starting in January, students will guide the direction of the club and determine what they want to explore and build.
  
  The Robotics Club is open to all Middle School students, and will meet after school once a week (day to be determined). Additionally, during the first trimester, there will be a "Robotics Team" elective offered during the Middle School elective blocks on Friday afternoon. This will give the team additional time to prepare for the competition.
  
  The cost to participate is $375. Click here to register!
  
  Please email Kurt Spieles at kspieles@anconaschool.org if you have any questions!
