Beyond the Bell partners want to ensure that every student has access to affordable after school experiences.

When you register, you will see three payment options per session. 

• $96 per club/activity/sport

• Reduced-price Lunch: $48 per club/activity/sport

• Free Lunch: $0 per club/activity/sport

These programs are offered below cost, thanks to Tacoma Creates and a host of community funding partners. Further discounts are available for students who qualify for the free and reduced-price lunches. Learn how to apply.

Every dollar paid goes directly to the Beyond the Bell program, helping make activities more affordable and accessible for every child. Cost should never be a barrier for any family, so further fee waiver assistance/scholarships are available to help. Learn more.

The average cost per activity is $320. Discounted rates are offered thanks to Tacoma Creates, private philanthropy, City of Tacoma, Pierce County, Greentrike, Metro Parks Tacoma, Tacoma Public Schools and individual donors – providing resources to help reduce fees for ALL Tacoma families.
