After School & Enrichment
After School & Enrichment
At Little Elephant Montessori, we have lots of engaging after-school programs to help your child learn and grow. These programs allow our students to try new things, which fit perfectly with our extended care hours. We offer many options, from sports and art to academic clubs, so every child can find something that they enjoy.
Our programs are a great way for our students to keep learning and working on their individual skills. Whether your child loves being creative, enjoys being active, or wants to learn something new, we help them follow their passions. Many of our programs encourage teamwork and socializing, helping students build friendships and learn how to communicate with others.
We love answering these questions because it gives us the chance to explain how Montessori, when executed carefully, can be a life-changing experience for children. Below, we highlight the key features of Little Elephant’s authentic Montessori program and what makes it unique.
Programs Overview
- Variety: We offer everything from creative arts and dance to sports and academic clubs.
- Session Structure: We have four sessions each year: Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer. Each session lasts from 6 to 13 weeks.

Other Enrichment Opportunities
We believe that learning happens everywhere, not just in traditional classrooms. That’s why we offer weekly field trip at Snowy Fun, where kids can explore, play, and engage in exciting activities.
At Little Elephant, playground time is more than just recess- out teachers help guide the kids in games and activities. As students stay active and make friends, everyone learns how to work together and play safely. Our teachers make sure that all students feel happy and included while they play.
At Little Elephant, we love to celebrate! Throughout the year, we have special events and Spirit Days to make school fun. From dressing up on Halloween to having friendly competitions, these events bring everyone together and create a strong sense of community.
