Before School and After School for PACT students

PACT families coordinate work and school in many ways. These services help us do it.

Peninsula Daycare

Peninsula Day Care provides before and after-school care at their own facility. Rates include transportation to and from Castro School. They include all minimal days and no-school days.

YMCA

Mid-Peninsula YMCA provides after-school care at Castro School, including all minimal days. Homework Club is from end of school to 4:30; Enrichment from 4:30 to 6 pm. YMCA Kids' Place covers no-school days at one of several locations. Bubb School (two miles from Castro Elementary) is the closest. Students participating in after-school extracurriculars are walked over to the YMCA classroom after the activities are done.

Family Daycare

After-School Clubs and Extracurriculars

While there is some variation from year to year, current after-school activities include chorus, chess club, folkloric dance, drama club, art class, engineering with Legos, and Mandarin language class.
