St. Hubert Out of School Time, also known as O.S.T., is Catholic Social Service’s high school level program offered to students at St. Hubert and Roman Catholic High School. Students and staff work together to create engaging activities that build skills, create bonds with their peers, and support the future pursuits of our students.
O.S.T. programs are offered throughout Philadelphia, providing a safe space, hands-on active learning experiences and nutritious after school food options. Together these programs have shown to help students develop social, emotional, physical and academic skills. During the school year, from dismissal until 5:30pm daily, St. Hubert students know they have a place with engaging activities and a mentoring staff that cares.
