After School Program

Because Work Doesn't (Always) End at 3:45

Welcome to ASP

The BNS After School Program (a.k.a. "ASP") runs every school day (with a few rare exceptions) from 3:45 to 5:45 pm. This program provides an experience akin to neighborhood play: kids of all ages making up games together, playing in sandpits, building with blocks, talking about school, shooting baskets, running around, enjoying nature, and laughing with friends. 

​

This program is directed by Rachel Pattison, staffed by Virginia Tech Human Development students, and closes at 5:45 sharp. It takes place primarily on our gorgeous playground, as well as in a couple of school classrooms during rainy or very cold weather.

 

This is a relaxed program with lots of multi-age play.
