Breakwater’s after-school programs are open to all children (grades K–8) in the Greater Portland area. We offer a unique opportunity to self-design your child’s after-school experience by supplementing our lightly structured AfterCare program with selections from our dynamic and diverse Enrichment classes. Our staff is made up of experienced and engaging teacher-learners who have a passion for what they do and are eager to work with curious minds. Come  join our community of enthusiastic athletes, passionate artists and performers, and most of all, good friends.

AfterCare

Our AfterCare Program runs from 3:00 to 5:30 each day and from 12:00 to 5:30 on half-day Wednesdays. This program provides a safe, well-supervised environment for lightly structured activities and indoor/outdoor free-play with friends. Transportation to Breakwater from Hall, Clifford, Levey Day, and Longfellow schools is available daily.

Based in the Daniel Crewe Building (The Dan), the AfterCare program takes full advantage of the School’s facilities, including our gym, library, playgrounds, and athletic fields. Children may participate in art projects, play chess and other popular board games, climb the climbing wall, play four-square on the blacktop, or take advantage of some quiet time to do homework. A healthy snack is provided each afternoon.
