Continue the Fun and Learning
MPP partners with third-party vendors and our teachers to provide extra fun and learning for our students every morning and afternoon. For the 2024 Fall semester, we are offering several new programs, as well as some of our young learners’ favorites.
2024-2025 Before & After-School Programs
Morning Movement
Morning Movement is for those families who need an additional hour in the morning or for that student who needs to get some extra play in before school…or both! This before school enrichment takes place from 8-8:50 a.m. on the playground or in the Fellowship Hall. Morning Movement is offered the entire semester (Jan 7 thru May 23).
Contact kmiller@morningsidepc.org to sign up and with any questions.
