Program Information

Awty Plus has three types of programs available to those who are enrolled:

Activity Programs

A student enrolled in the five-day or individual-day activity program receives supervision, homework assistance, a snack*, a drink, and participation in their selected activity. Please refer to the activity planner for a complete list of courses offered and their designated sessions and day.

* All snacks are individually packaged and free of peanuts, high fructose corn syrup, trans fats, food dyes, and preservatives. Drinks are water or 100% juice.

Homework Assistance Program

What distinguishes this from the activity program is that students do not participate in a daily after-school activity. In this program, students attend study hall with other age-appropriate children and concentrate on homework. This is not the same as one-on-one. Students who need more attention should seek private tutoring. This is for students who do not wish to participate in a daily activity.

One-on-One Music Program

We provide individual instruction for students who are interested in playing a particular musical instrument or who wish to sharpen their academic knowledge through intense, personalized assistance. Professional music instructors and Awty school teachers are contracted to provide such guidance.

Drop-in Service

On occasion, parents are not able to pick up their children immediately after school, due to work, an emergency or being out of town. This drop-in service is available to all children who attend The Awty International School. Drop-ins do not participate in after-school activities, but they receive supervision, homework assistance, and a snack. Please be sure to call before school lets out, so the Director of Awty Plus knows to expect your child. The drop-in service is a $35 fee for each child per day. The fee applies to any amount of time a child spends in Awty Plus.
