After School Satan

[3] It was created as an alternative to Christian-based after-school groups, specifically at schools that host the Evangelical Good News Club.

After four months of negotiations, it was agreed that the ASSC would stay on the elementary school campus where it had held its previous meetings.

[20] The club is now in its fourth year, with monthly meetings scheduled through May 2025, with a focus on science experiments, craft projects, and card games.

[31][32] Some school districts have chosen to stop renting to any outside groups as a result of ASSC's request to use its facilities.

[33][34] In addition to After School Satan Clubs, TST operates the Hellion Academy of Independent Learning (HAIL).

[36] TST also supports student-run High School Satan Clubs in: Olathe, Kansas; Georgetown, Texas; and Michigan City, Indiana.

[40] In July 2024, The Satanic Temple and the Freedom From Religion Foundation reached a settlement with Memphis-Shelby County Schools to recoup more than $15,000 in fees that had been charged to ASSC and to no other club.

The agreement also required the district to provide ASSC with equal access and treatment, and to hold no further press conferences about the club.

They emphasize a scientific and rationalist, non-superstitious world view, and oppose indoctrination into other-worldly belief systems.

"[48]After School Satan Clubs "incorporate games, projects, and thinking exercises that help children understand how we know what we know about our world and our universe.
