Afterschool Programs

  • Important Update on Afterschool Programming for 2024-2025

    As Jackson Public Schools undergoes a period of internal restructuring, our Afterschool programs will look different for the 2024-2025 school year. While we are working diligently to reimagine and expand our Out-of-School time offerings, we want to ensure that families have access to the resources they need for Afterschool Care and Enrichment.

    Community-Based Afterschool Resources

    To support our families during this time of transition, we have compiled a list of local Afterschool programs and services available within the community. These opportunities offer a variety of educational, recreational, and social experiences for students outside the traditional school setting.
