Where We Are Located
Paxton Center Large Group 1 Downstairs
1601 Branch St
Platte City, MO 64079
Hours
3:00 pm - 5:00 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting September 5.
Paxton doors lock at 3:00pm so students must be in the room by 3:00 pm or they must have the staff member they are working with fill out the late arrival form for Pirate Academy. Staff have access to this on the staff home doc.
Activity Bus
A modified activity bus route is available at 5 after Pirate Academy ends. Visit the transportation website to see if there is a stop near your home. Students who attend Pirate Academy until 4:50 and let the staff member know they are planning on riding the activity bus will be added to the list to ride home. If they are not on the list they cannot ride the bus.
This is a voluntary program. Students are welcomed to come for just part of the time or all of it. Students are not allowed to leave and “wander” the grounds or leave and then ride the activity bus home. If students are riding the activity bus they must be at Pirate Academy until 4:50 to get on the list. Students can leave with their own rides at any time.
