The IS 234/Cunningham OST after-school program is dedicated to helping students with their social, emotional, and cognitive development.

We strive to give students the opportunity to learn from our wonderful staff which includes professionals (teachers), college students (graduates and undergraduates), certified child care providers, and dedicated adults.

The students are given the chance to develop leadership skills and gain social interactions. We provide a variety of educational and recreational activities. At the IS 234 OST after-school program we provide the students with a nutritional snack, homework assistance, dance class, field trips, basketball, football, chorus/drama and many sport and recreation activities.

This program offers students and parents another outlet from 2:45pm through 5:30pm, Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

The OST program at IS 234 operates during regular school breaks i.e. mid-winter recess, spring recess, etc. On those special days we provide the students with breakfast, lunch, and snack. They may also be involved in various activities and trips, such as movies, community service, bowling, etc.
