2020-2021 SCHOOL YEAR FULL-DAY PROGRAM

Nextide Academy's After-School Program is now a Full-Day Program for the upcoming school year. Since LCPS has announced 100% distance learning as of July 21st, 2020, we have decided to keep our doors open from 7:45 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

The full-time program will have emphasis on learning simulating a school structure with four focused learning sessions per day adapting to the LCPS Curriculum. Our school simulation sessions will end at 3 PM and we will resume our after-school activities.

After-school Activities: 3:00 p.m - 6:00 p.m.

We will limit the student enrollment to half of our building capacit to practice social distancing. As we tread through this pandemic, we plan to use our 5000 sq ft facility with enough social distancing in place for our students.


Due to the limited enrollment, students who will be enrolling for an entire week of camp will get priority.

Demand excellence from your kid's after-school program!

Our innovative after school program is designed to give students the opportunity to explore various STEM and Arts content areas. The daily power-hour of learning fosters curiosity and iterative learning. Our goal is to help our students explore their potential and make them better critical thinkers.

"The best after-school programs understand that schools alone can’t prepare our children for success and work closely with schools and teachers to produce activities that enhance and complement, but do not replicate, the school day."
