Afterschool BPS

Buffalo Public Schools offers afterschool programming for all students. Programming supports students in meeting social-emotional, academic, physical, recreational, and health and wellness needs. 

The Afterschool Framework consists of:

  • Academic Enrichment - Activities that supplement, enhance or reinforce what is learned during the regular school day.

  • Positive Youth Development - Activities that encourage students to develop into well-rounded and healthy adults who are contributing members of their communities.

  • Health and Wellness - Activities that promote physical fitness and healthy eating habits.


Elementary programs are being planned for two and a half hours per day, five days per week. Each student is provided a meal or snack daily.  

Schools partner with community-based organizations (CBOs) to provide students with a welcoming and affirming environment. Together, they host programming that supports students in meeting social-emotional, academic, physical, recreational, and health and wellness needs.

Secondary programs are tailored to meet the needs of high school students and include opportunities for credit recovery.
