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. We have both OIS faculty and staff as well as other members from the local community to operate our ASA Program in order to give students more choices and opportunities to pursue lessons beyond our formal curriculum.

The ASA Program enriches the students’ learning experience in many ways! Here are some of the benefits and reasons to participate in the ASA Program.

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
Below is a list of regularly scheduled After School Activities:

Students will be exposed to First Aid skills by role playing and hands-on experience during the program.

All students will be awarded with a Certificate of Achievement at the end of the quarter.
