About: This club is being offered to Blazer Band students, as an optional second band practice each week. However, if your child choses to participate in chorus during the school day, they may still be able to participate in the after-school band club. There are two ways this is possible. The first, is if you can provide your child with their own instruments. The second, is if I still have unassigned instruments after the Blazer Band is formed during the school day (this situation may be more unlikely, as band has grown in popularity).

Grade 4 and 5:

• First Year Players will be meet on Mondays from 3:00-4:00pm
• Second Year (returning) players will meet on Thursdays from 3:00-4:00pm

About: The Battle of the Books is a fun way to get students to read a variety of books and learn to comprehend what they are reading and is a great way to promote recreational reading. The program is a "quiz bowl" type of game in which teams try to identify titles and authors of the 15 Sunshine State Young Readers Award Books. Questions are based on plots, settings and characters.

This program has a competition for grades 3 through 5, however the reading lists are for all grade levels and we encourage each student to read the listed books each school year.

This club will meet in the SPRING SEMESTER. Students who meet in this club will meet following the Battle of the Book Qualifying Test. Registration is NOT available at this time.

About: Odyssey of the Mind is an international, creative problem-solving program that provides opportunities for students to apply their creativity to solve a variety of problems that range from building mechanical devices to presenting their own interpretation of literacy classics. Emphasis is placed on teaching students that great minds don't necessarily think alike - and often march to different drummers; that there are no "right" answers; that creative solutions come from teamwork, cooperation, and risk-taking. The question about knowledge can and should be FUN!

Each team can have a maximum of seven students. Students are invited to audition for participation in this club. Students and families will be notified by the coaches if selected for the team.

About: Our focus is on sharing the Spanish language and culture with elementary age children. We believe that learning a second language at an early age is one of the best ways to enhance critical thinking skills, boost creativity and help students appreciate cultural diversity at an early stage in life.​

We believe that every child is unique and worthwhile and that they learn best in a fun, loving, and accepting environment. Therefore, we teach through a dynamic and interactive curriculum of songs, dance, drama and art. 

Our goal is to establish an environment that helps each child enjoy learning a new skill while having fun, sharing with others and being proud of their accomplishments. 

Day: Thursdays, 3-4pm,
