The after school program, “A Little bit Extra” is offered each Monday, Tuesday and Thursday for one hour. At this point it will be offered for Grades 3-5. Students are encouraged to attend daily Mass at 8:00 a.m. as a good way to start the school day. At Little Flower students take part in the Mass by singing, and participating in the liturgy. Each Wednesday is designated as a “Children’s Mass. We are excited about having close ties to the Little Flower Church for all of our students.
