After School Program
The Mays School offers daily after-school care (2:30 to 5:30 PM) and transportation from local elementary schools! We currently provide daily transportation from Condit, Lovett, Kolter, Horn, West U, Rodriguez, and Cunningham Elementary schools. As long as we have five or more students enrolled, we’re happy to add your child’s school to our route. Our safe and reliable MAYS vans are equipped with booster seats to keep every child snug and secure. Plus, tuition includes coverage on HISD early release days—more time for fun with us!
Snack time!
After a school day full of learning, we refuel with fresh fruit and a yummy whole grain snack before jumping into the fun!
Afternoons made for exploration & play!
Each day, students dive into a world of process-based art, sensory adventures, imaginative play, music and movement, story time, and plenty of outdoor fun. Whether your child loves painting, building, twirling, or getting muddy in the garden, there’s something for everyone.
Exciting extracurriculars each week!
Our weekly schedule is packed with enriching extracurriculars, from dance classes and music lessons to one-on-one tutoring and more (separate registration required).
​
Mixed age magic!
We believe in the power of mixed-age groups to build friendships, empathy, and flexibility. Children are placed in small, consistent groups (Pre-K 4/Kindergarten and 1st–5th grade) and are cared for by the same loving teacher every afternoon.
No homework, just play!
We do not require or enforce homework during after-care. Instead, we focus on giving children the space to explore, unwind, and enjoy being kids after a busy day at school.
Little camp, big fun!
When HISD schools are closed but MAYS is open, we welcome after-school students for Holiday Camp! Expect joyful days filled with art, science experiments, sensory play, games, books, mud kitchen explorations, and outdoor adventures in our sensory garden! Camp groups may be mixed with full-time students depending on enrollment, and dates are listed on our calendar (separate registration required).
Big camp, big fun!
We offer summer camp for three, three-week sessions during Summer 2026 (June 15th to July 3rd, July 13th to July 31st, and August 3rd to August 21st). Enrollment and detailed information for Summer Camp starts after winter break.
We accept childcare subsidy funds through Texas Workforce Commission's CCS Benefits for Families program.
