SEDP offers after-school programs for students in Grades K-8 at each of our Finn, Woodward, and Neary Elementary School locations daily until 6:00 p.m. Daily, we offer engaging, age-appropriate, enriching activities run by familiar and experienced staff who provide a safe and nurturing environment for the students. Students can be found playing games, doing crafts, creating movies, learning the fine arts, exploring the world of cooking with snactivities, or being fully engrossed in STEM projects.

New & Returning Families Enrollment

In mid March, re-enrollment opens to our currently enrolled SEDP families.  Families will have two weeks to reserve their child's space for the upcoming school year. Families that are re-enrolling are guaranteed the days their child/ren are currently attending but can add days based on availability.

​Beginning April 1st, registration begins for new families. To inquire about availability or to get added to the inquiry list, email Kerry Packard, Director, Kpackard@nsboro.k12.ma.us . New families are welcome to visit the program after school, to see it in action prior to the new school year, or visit the program during a kindergarten screening, which is held generally mid to late April.

To schedule a tour during after-school hours, please contact the SEDP Director at (508)481-9353 or via email, as noted above, to schedule a time.

Correspondence for full-day programs will come via email two weeks before, and enrollment will close one week before the full-day program OR when the spaces have been filled. SPACE IS LIMITED on these days and spots will be filled on a FIRST COME FIRST SERVE basis. Full day programs will either be held in house at our Neary location OR off-site. As mentioned, pick-up and drop-off takes place at Neary on field trip days and will be our home base on days where we do not go on field trips. Due to staffing and ratio constraints, we do not offer both a field trip and on-site programming simultaneously on the same day.
