Afterschool & Extended Learning Programs
The demand for quality education and reliable childcare has never been higher. SCSD Extended Learning Programs serve as a vital space, addressing the unique needs of dual-income working families. Our facilities offer a safe and enriching environment where children can continue to learn, explore, and grow outside of traditional school hours. Having dedicated space for each of our programs is critical to its success.
For parents juggling the demands of their careers, extended-day programming provides a reassuring solution. It ensures that children receive not only academic support but also a range of engaging activities that promote social, emotional, and cognitive development. This dedicated space becomes a bridge between school and home, fostering a seamless transition that minimizes stress for both parents and children.
By offering extended hours of care and educational engagement, it eases the challenges faced by working parents, allowing them to pursue their professional aspirations without compromising on the quality of their children's education and well-being.

San Carlos Belmont Afterschool Program (K - 3rd Grade)
Since 1981, San Carlos Belmont After School (SCBAS) has provided state licensed childcare to families in San Carlos and Belmont on-site at each of the district elementary schools. Known simply as “After School” we are pioneers and leaders in our community in the work of providing excellent and experienced care. We believe that school-aged children learn best in a warm, friendly and nurturing environment that is child initiated and play based. Our mature and highly trained staff work hard daily to provide interesting and fun growth and development experiences with the goals of fostering self-confidence, creativity, curiosity, and autonomy while nurturing individuality and freedom of choice. The children we serve will become experienced in healthy social interaction and teamwork, while learning to develop their social skills and build positive relationships with peers and adults. In short, After School provides your children with a strong basis for lifelong learning in a safe and fun environment.
Visit the San Carlos Belmont After School website for more information.
