The Bells Mill PTA is proud to help coordinate a variety of after-school enrichment opportunities for our students. From sports to STEM, there’s something for everyone to enjoy for students of all ages!
After School Activity Reminders for Parents and Caregivers:
- Inform your child’s Bells Mill teacher and/or aftercare program of their after school activity for dismissal/pick up purposes.
- Inform the activity instructor of any absences and/or if your child will be picked up by another after school organization (e.g. Bar-T or Georgetown Hill).
- Do not enter the school for dismissal, please consult your program vendor to confirm where to meet after class. Check out with the instructor before departing with your student.
Disclaimer: The Bells Mill PTA does not endorse or recommend any enrichment opportunities. All activities are run by outside providers—not the school or PTA—so families must contact vendors directly with any questions. These programs manage their own schedules, student supervision, and safety protocols. Please do not contact the PTA for any scheduling issues.
Kiddo Classes – Enrichment programs offered directly after school. Kiddo is a locally based public benefit company that provides a platform for families to easily explore, register for, and manage their kid’s enrichment activities. Kiddo is free to use for all families.
Additional Enrichment Programming – Programs offered that are not coordinated through the PTA or Bells Mill Elementary.
