About Cedar Creek Elementary School
Academic Enrichment at Cedar Creek Elementary
STARS (Students Together Achieving Remarkable Success) is an enrichment-based after-school program managed by Bastrop ISD and hosted on the Cedar Creek Elementary campus. Serving students from ages 3 to 12, the program bridges the gap between the school day and the evening with a mix of academic support and recreational activities. Children participate in supervised homework time, fitness activities, and various engagement-focused enrichment projects. The program leverages the elementary school's existing classrooms and recreational facilities to provide a familiar environment for students. Operating until 6:00 PM daily, it is staffed by district employees who follow a curriculum focused on social development and academic mastery. Daily snacks and meals are provided to all participants as part of the monthly tuition.
