After-School Clubs
After-school clubs provide SJCS students with opportunities to explore new topics or to dive deeper into a topic or skill from our standard curriculum. Most clubs are taught by members of the SJCS community and typically meet once a week for eight weeks. Previous club offerings include: Art, Spanish, Dance, Chess, Science, and Minecraft (technology).
Clubs are typically offered in the Fall and Spring. There is an additional cost for after-school clubs and registration is required. Availability is often limited - complete the registration early to get your spot!

We love to use the talents and gifts within our community. If you are a current parent or the owner of a club program, please contact the Director of Enrichment Programs to submit an idea for an after-school club.

She is passionate about creating meaningful experiences that cultivate personal growth, teamwork, and a strong sense of community.
Working with kids and making a lasting impact on their lives has always been Brianna’s passion. She began her career in pediatrics, spending seven years as a medical assistant, where she loved caring for children and their families. As her son was growing up, she transitioned into early childhood education, earning her credentials to become a preschool teacher.

With a deep-rooted commitment to faith-based education, Brianna partners with students and staff to nurture both academic and spiritual development.

Personal Biography
Brianna is a lifelong San Jose resident who has always had a heart for faith, family, and community. She met her husband at church, and in 2017, they began their journey as a blended family with three wonderful kids and their beloved one-eyed pug, Lincoln. Their family is committed to building the local church, where they strive to live out what they believe matters most: Loving God and Loving People.

Christian Philosophy of Education
Brianna firmly believes that the greatest foundation a child can have is a Christian foundation, and she is passionate about helping students build that in a meaningful way. Education should not only equip students with knowledge and skills but also instill Christ-centered leadership, character, and confidence. She sees her role as both an educator and a disciple-maker, recognizing that true learning happens when students are encouraged to grow in their faith alongside their academic pursuits.
She values being in a school where she can pray for students and nurture their faith within a community that truly cares for each child’s well-being. For Brianna, Christ-centered education is a complete education—without Christ, students miss out on the most essential piece of what makes them whole. She is passionate about creating a culture where students feel empowered to lead, strengthened in their identity in Christ, and prepared to impact the world for His glory.
Brianna is grateful to be part of a school that prioritizes faith, learning, and character development in every way, equipping students to grow into strong, confident, and Christ-led individuals.
