at The PREP School of Crystal Falls
For children ages 5–11 | Monday–Friday, 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM
At The PREP School of Crystal Falls, we know that a child’s growth doesn’t pause when the school day ends. In fact, the hours after dismissal are some of the most meaningful: a chance for children to process their day, pursue new interests, build friendships, and simply be themselves in a safe, nurturing environment.
That’s why we created The ZONE, an intentional, engaging after-school program designed specifically for students aged 5 to 11. It’s not an afterthought or an add-on. It’s a natural continuation of The Prep Schools’ commitment to whole-child development, carried into the afternoon hours with the same care, structure, and heart that define our classrooms.
Here, children aren’t just watched, they’re welcomed, supported, and encouraged. They enter a space built for growth, connection, and exploration. Whether they need time to wind down with a book, dive into a hands-on project, play with friends, or focus on homework, The ZONE offers the flexibility and guidance to meet them where they are.

Each afternoon, our program provides:
A familiar environment filled with trusted educators
Children are greeted by warm, attentive staff who get to know each student personally, fostering a deep sense of belonging and emotional safety.
A thoughtful balance of structure and choice
The ZONE is designed around routines that give children a sense of predictability, while also offering freedom to explore new interests and engage with peers.
Space to thrive socially, creatively, and intellectually From art and music to cooking, technology, and play, students are exposed to enriching opportunities that support their curiosity and development.
We understand that families rely on us not just for logistics, but for peace of mind, and for a meaningful experience that supports their child’s academic, emotional, and social wellbeing. In The ZONE, you’ll find just that: a place where afternoons are filled with purpose, fun, and personal growth, all under the care of a school you already trust.
For families at The PREP the day doesn’t end at the bell, and neither does the learning. The ZONE is a space where children continue to feel seen, celebrated, and supported. It's where they can laugh, learn, and grow a little more, every single afternoon.
