Extended Day

Smokey’s Bounders

The Smokey’s Bounders Enrichment Program has a long and important tradition at PIFS. Originally named for Smokey the Bear, these nature and enrichment programs provide children with the opportunity to extend their learning beyond their day in the classroom. Open to students three years and above, offerings vary depending on the age of the child. All programs are engaging, experiential and active.

Lunch

PIFS offers students three years and above the option to enjoy lunch on campus with their classmates in our lunch room. Homemade and nutritious meals incorporate fresh and organic ingredients including vegetables and herbs grown by students in our onsite gardens. Shared lunches give children the opportunity to try new foods, practice table manners and conversation, and increase their comfort and sense of belonging at school.

After-School Classes

A variety of after-school classes are offered throughout the year, taught by PIFS staff and providing students another opportunity to extend their school day, form relationships with multi-age peers, and explore new activities at school.  Class options have included Science, Art, Gardening, Yoga, and Sports, among others.
