After School Care

Turning Point tailors After School Care according to the age of the population. Morning Care, provided gratis from 7:30-8:30 am, offers supervised play in one of three locations. After School Care, offered on a fee basis, provides students in each Division with a safe, interactive, after school environment. A snack is provided for every student staying for After School Care.

The youngest students, those in Primary and K-1, spend one supervised hour on the Primary Playground and then move inside to work on art projects and other activities provided by the After School Care Supervisors.

The Elementary students begin the afternoon with snack and recess. At 4:00 pm, they move indoors for an hour study period. After completing homework, the students may choose from a variety of indoor activities, including board games and art projects.

Middle School students also experience a supervised homework session. After 5:00 pm, Middle School students who have completed their work may play educational games or other supervised activities around campus.

Santa Cruz Island Trip

The Level 7 study trip doesn’t take our students far, but they feel as if they are half a world away. This camping adventure to Santa Cruz Island, part of the pristine Channel Islands National Park, gives students a chance to become fully immersed in a living ecosystem right in their own backyard. As an extension of the environmental biology curriculum, the trip features rock climbing, night hikes with astronomy study, and guided tours with expert naturalists. Students find their home base for the week in a carry-in, carry-out campsite—students learn to get by on essentials, and take all waste with them when they depart, leaving the site as pristine as when they arrived. Activities on the island are designed to build self-confidence, teamwork, and trust. Students return, knowing that they have passed through a life-altering experience.
