DDES Crew Club

After School Care

MISSION

The Mission of the DDES Crew Club is to offer an enriching after-school experience for all students that aims to build upon the high-quality school culture that makes DDES unique. 

OBJECTIVES

  • Provide engaging enrichment blocks that spark curiosity and inspire creativity.
  • Build a healthy community, both physically and mentally, by promoting movement and positive social interaction. 
  • Encourage teamwork and character development through organized games and inclusive play. 
  • Explore the city around us in ways that enrich students’ cultural and civic experiences, while also igniting their sense of adventure. 
  • Nurture each child’s needs and interests based on the relationships we’ve built with them throughout the school day. 

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

DDES runs the ONLY in-house after-school program in all of DPS, established in 2015! We have created a fun and safe space for all DDES students focused on building strong relationships and creating joy! We will begin each day with a healthy snack, followed by either an enrichment block upstairs or crafts & group games outdoors or in our multipurpose room. The enrichment classes your child is in each week will be focused on a bigger idea, such as STEM, Drama & Theatre, Community, and Arts & Crafts. These subjects will change throughout the year and will be overseen by DDES Program Leaders and Crew Club Program Managers. After transitioning from the enrichment blocks, students in Crew Club will have the choice to participate in organized games/play or participate in the craft project for the day. All Crew Club staff engage in extensive professional development during our summer institute and continue their growth throughout the school year.
