After School Program

Baseball Club | Homework Club | Knitty Gritty Club
 

From soccer games to knitting, extracurricular activities are an important part of student life at JCDSRI. We encourage our students to express their personalities and interests through their extracurricular experiences.

The After School Program offers several clubs such as Book Buddies, Israeli Dancing, and Knitting. Seventy percent of our Middle School students participate in our Athletic Program that features soccer, basketball, and baseball.

Community Service is integrated throughout the grades. For Thanksgiving the students collect tzedakah for the Rhode Island Community Food Bank. At Hannukah, Grade two performs for the residents of Tamarisk Assisted Living. Middle school students often participate in special projects in honor of their Bar or Bat Mitzvahs. Some of these projects included a car wash, a book collection for a Vietnam family, cleaning a baseball field, and running in World Run Day and donating the funds collected from the run to different charities. Because of our successful participation in their Good Deeds Program, we are a Feinstein Leader School. Read our Feinstein Newsletter.

Middle School students belong to small advisory groups that provide individual and group assistance. Middle School also has an elective program featuring the arts, the Student Leadership Council, and the annual yearbook.

Our school offers special trips and is especially proud to announce that last May our 8th Grade visited Israel. Please check out our Israeli Trip blog. Other trips include an overnight at the Boston Museum of Science, environmental and group-building camping trips at Camp Teva in Connecticut and University of Rhode Island Alton Jones Campus in Rhode Island, and the annual trip to New York and Washington for Grade 7.
