After-school Programs

PTM operates four after-school program sites. For two hours (Monday-Thursday) during the academic year, students rotate between specialized reading instruction, enrichment, tutoring, and homework assistance. On Fridays, we celebrate "Fun Friday" with special games, activities, and field trips.


PTM owns a fleet of 10 buses and vans specifically dedicated to transporting students between school, the after-school site, and home as required. This unique service is something PTM takes immense pride in providing for our families.

“I love PTM! My children always come home with stories about how much they are learning and what cool activities they have done. They love the staff and I can say I truly feel like we are part of the PTM family.”
