Extracurricular Arts, Academics & Activities on Both Shores

Extracurricular Arts, Academics & Activities on Both Shores

As we all know, thanks to the pandemic, school is going to be very different this year. Whether your child is returning to a brick-and-mortar school or you’ve opted for virtual learning, many of the clubs and activities that typically allow them to explore their various interests will not be possible. So, while academics remain top priority, you may want to consider extracurricular activities to provide another level of enrichment. If you’re in the market for artistic endeavors, physical activities beyond the world of team sports, or enhanced academic opportunities or support, we’ve got you covered.

Our list of New Orleans and Northshore businesses offer STEM programs, performing arts, gymnastics, cooking, martial arts, and more. Many provide opportunities for in-person and/or online instruction, so be sure to call or visit their websites to find out if they can accommodate your specific needs.
