After the Bell & Before the Bell
After the Bell & Before the Bell
In cooperation with the Woburn Public Schools, the Boys & Girls Club is proud to offer 21st Century Learning Center afterschool programs at the Shamrock and Altavesta Elementary Schools and before-school programs at the Shamrock and Malcolm White Elementary Schools.
Shamrock School & Altavesta School – After the Bell
Staffed by caring educators, After the Bell is focused on academic enrichment and social-emotional development. School staff must recommend students, but occasionally, there is space for parents to elect their children to participate. Please note that After the Bell is not a childcare program. Children participate in high-yield learning activities that help improve their academic skills and receive assistance with their homework assignments. The program takes place from dismissal until 5:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday. After the Bell is a 21st Century Community Learning Center funded by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.
Priority is granted to students who are recommended by school staff. If your child was not recommended, but you are interested in participating, please e-mail Alison McDaniel, After the Bell Program Director, to join the waiting list.
Malcolm White School & Shamrock School – Before the Bell
To start the school day positively, fitness activities are offered at both Shamrock and Malcolm White Elementary Schools. Members of the Physical Education Leadership class at Woburn Memorial High School visit Shamrock and Malcolm White each morning and engage the students in fun games and physical fitness. It is a great way to start the day! Before the Bell begins at 7:30 a.m., five mornings per week.
