Out-of-School Time Activities

Out-of-school time (OST) activities, including after school, summer, and vacation week programs, provide students with excellent opportunities for growth beyond the traditional school day and year. These programs foster valuable relationships, new friendships, and exposure to diverse experiences.

A wide range of OST opportunities are available for students throughout Cambridge. These include activities, clubs and programs held within school buildings both before and after school, as well as numerous other OST opportunities provided by and accessible through various youth and community centers, non-profits, sports leagues, and more across the city. For more information about after school bus eligibility and stops, click here.

Many other Afterschool, Summer and OST Programs are located all over Cambridge! To learn more about the OST programs and activities happening throughout Cambridge, the Cambridge Agenda for Children OST has compiled resources. Click here to view Afterschool and Summer Resource Guides and Slideshows.
