OASIS Afterschool Program

What is OASIS?

OASIS stands for Opportunities and Supports in School. OASIS offers programming after school and over the summer.

This programming includes a variety of engaging activities aimed to provide a safe place for students to get help with their schoolwork, participate in engaging activities with their peers, and have an opportunity to try new experiences. Most of our programs are led by our school-day teachers or other professionals in their respective industry.

OASIS is free and open to all students in the Boquet Valley Central School District. To participate, caregivers must register their students. You can that do by finding the form on this page to register for the approrp

If you have any questions about the registration process or need a printed form mailed to you, contact Marcail Miller at mmiller@boquetvalleycsd.org or 518-873-6371 ext. 2405.
