After-School Programs

Four programs run on the Canyon campus after the last bell — two that cover the whole afternoon, and two enrichment programs that meet on set days. Open any one below for grades, days, cost and how to sign up.

Program	Grades	When	Cost	Sign up with
STAR Education	TK–5	Every school day, until 6:00 p.m.	Fee-based	STAR Inc.
ELOP	TK–5	Every school day, until 6:00 p.m.	Free	Canyon school office
Orchestra Place	K–5	Weekly, set day per class	Set by the provider	theorchestraplace.com
Parker-Anderson	TK–5	Tuesday to Friday, by class	From $136	Parker-Anderson page

STAR and ELOP are the two programs that cover the full afternoon. Orchestra Place and Parker-Anderson are run by outside providers, so you enroll and pay them directly rather than through Canyon. If you are not sure which combination works for your family, or whether a child can move between programs on the same afternoon, the school office can help: (310) 454-7510.
