After-School Care

Let’s Plan for After School

Contact the office for current after-school care availability, hours, and fees, along with information about signing up and picking up your scholar.

Considering a Community Program?

Families arrange care directly with outside providers. Before registering, ask the provider about eligible ages, available spaces, costs, and pickup requirements.

If your scholar would need transportation from LJA to a program, contact the school office to discuss whether transportation can be arranged before making plans.

Community Care & After-School Programs

Explore care and youth programs beyond LJA. Families register directly with each organization.

Some programs serve only younger scholars or meet on certain days. Contact the provider to confirm age requirements, schedules, costs, and available spaces. All program links open in a new tab.

Boys & Girls Clubs of the Twin Cities

Explore St. Paul locations and contact a club about membership and programs for your scholar’s age.
