The Branch Academy follows the Hillsborough County school year calendar, including holidays and teacher workdays. The students join us at The Branch Academy upon dismissal on Early Release days.
Due to an increase in demand for our After the Bell program, we only offer a five day a week program.
If you feel that our after school program will meet your needs, please use our online Wait List at this site to place your child on the wait list for After the Bell. Each year, we give priority to our enrolled day students and their siblings, and then to returning After the Bell students. Once that enrollment is established, we turn to our wait list, and we will be in touch regarding an available spot at Branch.
We would love for your child to be with us for our fantastic After the Bell program!
