After School Activities

OIS encourages students to participate in our After School Activities (ASA) Program. Whether your child is in elementary school or middle school, the ASA Program offers a wide variety of activities to help all students explore their interests.

The ASA Program gives students the opportunity to

  • explore different interests
  • build new skills
  • develop friendships
  • contribute to society
  • acquire leadership skills
  • have fun without leaving campus
