For parents and caregivers, the new school year also brings the opportunity to find the perfect after-school activity for their kids. The S.B. Independent’s After-School Activities Guide can assist in finding the perfect way for kids to end their school day while learning something new, doing what they love, meeting new friends, and having fun.
Our After-School Activities resource guide will be online only and updated regularly, so keep checking for additional listings. If you want to be listed in this online guide, please fill out the online Submissions Form and return it to afterschool@independent.com.
Happy back-to-school 2024, parents and kids!
