Before & After School Programs
Madison Adventure Club
The Madison Adventure Club (MAC) program offers safe, affordable, and high-quality before and after school care for Madison students. The program is run by trained staff and aims to support students in their academic and personal development.
Research shows that after school programs can help students improve behavior, work habits, educational aspirations, attitudes towards school, sense of community belonging, and relationships with parents.
The MAC program provides a variety of experiences that extend the school day, including recreational and highly structured activities such as snack time, homework time, outdoor play, arts and crafts, board games, computers, cooking, and more. These activities aim to create safe, positive, and fun learning environments, foster positive peer group experiences, and provide opportunities for children to continue learning and growing.
