Tax Credit Classes at Desert Springs
Art Club
Do you LOVE art class? If so, Art Club is for you! Students will explore a variety of art materials and create exciting works of art in this fun club. All art projects will be different from the artworks we create during the regular school day, and are suitable for upper-grade students who enjoy making art.
Homework Club
Does your student need help with his/her homework? This club provides 60 minutes of supervised and assisted homework time. Students are expected to stay on task during this time.
Running Club
Students learn the fundamentals of running, in a fun, non-competitive atmosphere. Students will have an opportunity to represent DSP in a district cross-country race in December. Please note that signing up for this class means you give permission for your child to run off campus to the park or Horizon High School.
Sports Club
Students learn the fundamentals of different sports and activities. Students focus on team sportsmanship and interacting with different levels of ability and ages.
Yearbook Club
Use creativity and photography skills to plan and build this year’s yearbook. Students will make plans to take pictures during school events and create pages for all to remember. Approval by current grade level teacher is required to participate in this club and students are not allowed to miss more than two meetings.
Note: These are just possible classes offered. Please call the office to get a current list of tax credit classes being offered. Students will be enrolled on a first-come, first-served basis. There are a minimum number of student registrations needed for classes to proceed. Confirmation will be sent home once your student is registered. A calendar of class days will be provided upon approval. There are no classes on Early Release days.
