After-School Programs

Frisco ISD has provided after school programs in our elementary schools for more than a decade. The YMCA and academic service providers such as AlphaBest have been a combination that many families have used on our elementary campuses.

Opportunities for after school instruction have increased. Spanish, chess, and art lessons are now available one afternoon per week. We are always seeking ways to continually improve After-School programs and to challenge all students to succeed and to become good citizens.

YMCA and AlphaBest are available for after-school childcare daily on all K-5 campuses.
