NorthStar Academics aims to provide educational and social opportunities for student enrichment alongside NorthStar Adventure and NorthStar Athletics. Key components of NorthStar Academics programming include academic achievement, arts immersion, and career readiness.
After-School Program
NorthStar has redesigned its daily program schedule to enhance students’ engagement across the core pillars of programming: Academics, Adventure, and Athletics.
Academics: During the designated academic block, students are guided through a range of learning experiences, including literacy, mathematics, and social-emotional development.
Adventure: This program continues to offer experiential learning opportunities that nurture creativity, curiosity, and personal growth.
Athletics: This program is expanding to introduce students to a broader array of physical activities, including intramural games, recreational sports, and competitive team experiences.
This updated structure is designed to provide a more balanced and enriching daily experience for every student.
.
Our after school program is tailored to each age range we serve:
Elementary School
NorthStar Academics at the Elementary school level (grades 3-5) focuses on foundational math and language arts, with enrichment in social-emotional, cognitive, and physical development through play.
Middle School
NorthStar Academics at the middle school level (grades 6-8) supports students in their continued education with STEAM-focused learning, social-emotional development, mindfulness, and high school readiness.
Leaders & Achievers (High School)
NorthStar Academics at the high school level (grades 9-12) is known as the Leaders & Achievers program and is focused assisting each student reach graduation on time with a post-high school plan. Individualized academic support is offered through grade monitoring, one-on-one tutoring and credit recovery support. Students engage in potential career opportunities through hands-on exposure in real-life work environments. Students enrolled in Leaders & Achievers participate in curriculum focused on character development, leadership growth, life skills enhancement, and pot-secondary education readiness.
There is no cost associated with registering students in grades 9-12 for our high school program, Leaders & Achievers. Because the program is free of charge, continuing participation is contingent on the individual student’s investment of time, effort and positive behaviors. For more information about these opportunities, please contact our High School Academic Manager, Ethan Beier via email or via phone at 402.614.6360 x 232.
