Beginning in August, Hawaii Preparatory Academy will offer Hui Opio, an after-school program open to all middle school students in the Waimea community.
Classes and sports led by qualified teachers and coaches are planned from 3:30 to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday at the school’s Village Campus. Students can register for either one quarter (eight weeks) or one semester (16 weeks).
“The goal of this program is to provide students with the opportunity to participate in middle school sports and other academic or art classes,” said Ali Ann Buscher, program coordinator.
Buscher said the program also will provide students with a safe, productive and supervised place after school. The program is designed to be self-sufficient and program fees will go directly to hiring qualified coaches and teachers, purchasing equipment and supplies, and other operational costs.
Students can choose from a variety of offerings, including basketball, cross-country, life skills, photography, school of rock, STEM (science, technology, engineering and math), soccer, track, ukulele, volleyball, yoga and more.
For program fees and more information, email Buscher at abuscher@hpa.edu or visit www.hpa.edu/huiopioafterschool.
