Now Enrolling for the 2016-2017 School Year!

After School programs at both Barrett Elementary in Homestead and Park Elementary in Munhall are designed to provide a safe place for students aged 5 to 12 to learn and play.

Staff-to-student ratio is never more than 1 to 12, and the staff strives to provide students with as much individual attention as possible.

Programming runs from 2:30 to 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday, with the exception of some school holidays.

A typical day at After School consists of snack, homework help, a craft activity, a gym activity, computer time, and free time. Dinner is served at Barrett Elementary each day at 5:15 PM. Lesson plans are created based on a weekly theme with a new craft and group game each day of the week. Our goal at MUSA is to create a fun and interactive environment for youth, while also encouraging life skills such as teamwork and sharing as well as reinforcing academic skills such as math, science, and language arts.
