Our mission for P.R.I.D.E. Club children:

• P - Prepare for the future
• R - Respect yourself and others
• I - Imagine your hopes and dreams
• D - Discover your potential
• E - Engaging in your own success

The Pendergast School District recognizes the need for many families to have an affordable, quality-based program that focuses on the needs of a particular age group and endeavors to provide each child with quality programs and experiences. The Community Education Department has developed the Pendergast P.R.I.D.E. Club to provide this valuable service to the community. Our program provides a safe environment and offers a level of supervision that allows your child to be able to experience the P.R.I.D.E. Club program under the watchful eye of the designated staff. P.R.I.D.E. Club staff guide children and promote their participation in multiple engaging activities such as supervised homework assistance, educational enriched activities and games, technology, structured play, and afternoon snacks. 

Program capacity at each school is dependent on available space and staffing.
