Enrichment classes are offered on-site during the after school day. Students enrolled in enrichments will separate from the general after school class and organize with their class for the duration of their specific enrichment. Enrichment classes are located in PS39 classrooms or at the Camp Friendship Gym. Following the class, students return to regular after school activities, including outdoor yard time and free play or organized games in PS39 classrooms. Afterschool hours with enrichments remain the same- 2:40-6:00PM.
Enrichment classes are provided by local childhood enrichment specialists. Vendors include Park Slope United, Chess At Three, Private Picassos, and more. In addition to the specially trained enrichment providers, a Brooklyn Beans staff member, familiar with the students and space, will be overseeing to ensure all children’s needs are met.
Enrichments are offered as an add-on with an additional fee. Separate registration is required. Enrichment classes are capped at 10-20 students per class. Enrollment is held on a first come, first served basis.

Enrichment classes are currently only offered to students registered for the After School Session. Please ensure the enrichment you are signing up for is on the same day your child is enrolled.
