Athletics

SAFE Athletics

After-school athletics built into the SAFE program — academics first, then activity, then home.

How SAFE Athletics Works

SAFE Athletics is athletics inside the after-school program, not separate from it. Students stay on campus after the bell and move through a consistent afternoon: snack, academic and literacy time, then physical activity, practice, or enrichment.

That structure means your student gets homework support and a healthy snack before practice, and stays supervised the entire time.

The Afternoon, Step By Step

1. Snack

Students eat before any physical activity.

2. Academics & Literacy

Homework help and targeted reading and math practice.

3. Activity, Practice & Enrichment

Sport-specific practice, skill work, games, or club time.

4. Attendance & Supervision

Students are signed in and supervised by program staff throughout.

5. Release

Students are released only to a parent, guardian, or approved adult on file.

6. Until 6:00 PMThe program runs to 6:00 PM every school day.
