After School Program

The classes in our After School Program - which we call AGs, short for "Arbeitsgemeinschaft" - are designed to provide quality after school experiences for our students.

In addition to a wide range of enriching and fun after school activities, we also offer homework supervision for our students in grades 1 - 6. Please refer to the Homework Supervision website to sign up.

All AGs are taught by our teachers or outside professionals.

Types of AGs

1. GISNY AGs:

These AGs are open to all students, subject to availability. Please read "How To Sign Up" on the right and follow these steps closely to help avoid any misunderstandings. 

GISNY AGs are taught by GISNY teachers and the fee per semester for each AG is $300 in grades 1-6. There is no charge for grades 7-12. Enrollment is final. Payment is due via credit card in SignUp Genius immediately. 

2. External AGs:

These AGs are open to all students, subject to availability. Sign up is the same as for our GISNY AGs. Classes are taught by professionals send by external companies. The fee varies depending on the class chosen.

2. Performing AGs:

These AGs are limited to those students chosen at the discretion of the AG teacher. Certain AGs, such as Marimba, Choir, Band and Theater require additional commitment and experience. To enroll in a Performing AG, you must contact the AG teacher directly. Please refer to the "AG Program" and the "AG description" page on our website for further information. Performing AGs are free of charge and enrollment is for the entire school year.

3. Extracurricular AGs:

These AGs are an extension of the GISNY curriculum and participation is encouraged. Extracurricular AGs are free of charge. Enrollment per semester via SignupGenius.
