Middle School Program

Complete the appropriate registration form for George McGovern, Ben Reifel, or Whittier Middle School to sign up for the CLC program for the 2025–2026 school year.

New in 2025-2026, CLC will partner with providers to offer after-school programs at 3 Middle Schools with plans to add more schools in the near future! CLC Middle School will allow students to stay right in their building, and receive quality care that expands learning, enhances experiences, and keeps students totally engaged.

Locations & Providers

  • George McGovern Middle School, offered by Boys & Girls Clubs of the Sioux Empire.

  • Ben Reifel Middle School, offered by Boys & Girls Clubs of the Sioux Empire.

  • Whittier Middle School, offered by Volunteers of America Dakota.

Start the Registration Process now!

Students must attend one of these locations during the school day to be able to participate in the after-school program.

Exception: If a student attends a Sioux Falls School District Specialized School but one of the above schools is your Home Attendance Center, you may attend the CLC program in your Home Attendance Center.
But please note: transportation will NOT be provided.

For Middle Schools that don’t have a CLC program, YET:

There are school run clubs and activities at all Middle Schools, talk to your school to get involved! We also recommend the Afterschool Teen programs at the Boys & Girls Club (BGC) Empower Campus.  BGC offers transportation from Edison, Memorial and Patrick Henry afterschool to their location. The teen program is open until 8:00 pm, with snack and supper provided. Students will have many opportunities to experience enrichment activities with Boys and Girls Club!

Rates & Tuition Assistance

Middle School CLC is very affordable! The cost to families is only $30/week to participate in ALL of the clubs and activities provided, plus receive daily snacks and supervision!

  • There is NO COST to participate at McGovern, thanks to generous grants and programs provided through the Boys and Girls Club and the United Way!

  • If your family qualifies for Free or Reduced Lunch, your participation fee will be waived, so you can participate in Middle School CLC at no charge to families!

  • An Additional Annual Processing Fee: $20 per child is charged once, for processing your application. (Assistance is available if you are unable to pay this fee.)

  • Tuition Payment is charged every other week, so $60 bi-weekly for those paying full tuition.
