2024~2025 Afterschool Program~$98/wk~
Carolina Gymnastics Academy provides transportation to CGA Afterschool Care. Our program is offered to children at the following schools: Bellamy, Codington, Pine Valley, Masonboro, and Parsley.
Daily Schedule: Upon arrival, children hang backpacks in the Afterschool building and proceed to free play in the gym. No toys or electronics are allowed in gym; they must stay in backpack. Children are allowed to play on bars, balance beams, trampolines, and mats; before leaving the gym, children are required to clean up equipment. Students play outside until after 5pm, except during homework time. We provide homework supervision, but not 1:1 tutoring! When children come inside after 5pm or on rain days, there are board games, coloring, arts & crafts, toys, and books to keep them occupied.
Snacks: Children must eat snacks they have brought from home; if they have parental permission, they may purchase snacks, which will be billed to your account monthly.
Behavior Policies: We expect students to listen to our coaches and obey our rules: No touching, no hitting, no bad words, no defacing or breaking our equipment, no backtalk to staff, no electronics. If there is a discipline problem, we will notify parents at pick up, and we expect parents to reinforce our rules. If discipline issues continue, we reserve the right to terminate care immediately.
Parent/Child Communication: You are paying us to take care of your child; please do not allow your child to call you at work from any of their devices. Apple watches and phones must be kept in backpacks. If we need to communicate with you, we will call you. If you need to get an emergency message to your child, call the gym, and we will communicate the message to your child.
Parent Must Be Reachable: If we are calling you to pick up your child due to sickness or injury, you must answer your phone and respond by coming, or sending someone, to pick up your child right away.
Absence Notifications: Please email the gym if your child is sick or is a car rider. We can’t leave the school until we verify your child’s whereabouts, and that puts us behind schedule!

Weather Emergencies: Dangerous weather events are beyond our control, and if the schools close for student safety, we MAY also close; there will be no refunds or credits issued for missed classes due to weather emergencies.
