End of Summer Closure

Aug. 25 - Sept. 1

Each year, in order to maintain our excellent water quality, we close the pool at the end of August to drain and refill it. Continuing the tradition from the last three summers, this year we will be utilizing this period to both service the pool and provide our staff with a well-deserved break by fully shutting down the center.

The NECC facility will be closed from August 25th to September 1st.

We truly appreciate your support and understanding as we give our hardworking staff a chance to unwind.

We want to thank all of our After School Time families for a fun year! This past school year we had a blast splashing around in the pool on half school days, playing with friends in the gym, stepping into new worlds with each book from our book library, and even joining a free breakdancing demonstration hosted by WeBreak.

A very special thank you to our AST staff! We couldn't do this work without you. Thank you for all your hardwork and dedication to ensuring all our kids have a great year.

We will have a few openings in our After School Time program for the 2025-26 school year. Learn more and apply here!
