AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM INFORMATION

Morning Care:

The ASP program provides care for students prior to school’s start beginning at 7:30 am at no cost. Although pre-registration is not required, we do ask that parents escort students to the After-School Room and check them in for safety.

Kinder Corner: 2:00 pm - 3:20 pm

Kindergarten students are welcomed to the program beginning at 2:00 pm, while waiting for a sibling’s dismissal or simply enjoying additional unscripted free time with friends. Kinder students receive a snack, participate in enrichment classes or free time and have daily story/rest time. Parents can make arrangements through Mrs. Helmgren to have students exiting the program at 3:20 be walked up to Lincoln Avenue for pick-up. Students remaining in ASP past 3:20 must enroll in one of the ASP plans. Siblings and/or parents may also come to retrieve kindergarten students from the program by properly signing them out with a counselor.

Kindergarten-5th Grade: 3:20 pm - 6:00 pm

Students will be greeted and checked into ASP by qualified counselors, then led through age appropriate activities with intermittent supervised play and/or attend ASP classes until picked up by a parent no later than 6pm. Students participating in ASP Enrichment classes must be signed in and out of ASP for safety reasons, but will not be charged for time spent in classes. All students remaining on campus after 3:45 will automatically be signed into ASP and be charged accordingly.

Middle School:Middle School students must sign into ASP in Mrs. Peter’s office by 3:45 p.m. Students then may get a snack from the Jayhawk Cafe and/or gather materials for supervised study hall. Students must check into the Read Library by 4:00 pm. Students will remain in the library until 4:45 pm when they will break for a snack in Room 101. All Middle School students in attendance will be expected to be working quietly in study hall and must come prepared. No middle school students may remain on campus unattended after 3:45 pm, students who have not been picked up by 3:45 will automatically be signed into ASP and will be charged accordingly.

Snack: ASP and Epicurean are working together to provide a nutritious snack for students daily at 4:30 pm, which is included in the outlined fees. All students are welcomed and encouraged to bring additional snacks!

Sign-Out: IMPORTANT CHANGE FOR 2010-2011!!! In an effort to improve safety for our ASP students, a counselor will now be stationed right inside the gatehouse doors on Lincoln Avenue to receive parents, sign-out and call students to meet their parents at the gatehouse on Lincoln Avenue. We ask that no parents call the program directly in advance to have their students sent to Lincoln Avenue, please plan accordingly. ASP closes promptly at 6:00 pm, students remaining on campus after 6:00 pm, will be charged $5 for the first minute and $1 per minute thereafter.

ASP BANDBeginning Band: Tuesdays & Thursdays, 3:30-4:15

Intermediate Band: Tuesdays & Thursdays 4:15-5:00

Band is a wonderful opportunity for students to bond with classmates, meet new friends, develop personal discipline, build self esteem, and begin the practice of an art form that will deliver joy and satisfaction from their school days to beyond. Beginning Band is for students with little to no experience, while intermediate students will have completed at least one full year in band. The band performs at Lower School Assemblies and takes a field trip to a local school or retirement community in May. The school has a limited number of instruments to loan to families. There are also several local companies to rent instruments from at a reasonable cost. Students do not have to choose an instrument prior to bands’ start, where they’ll be given the opportunity to explore the instruments before making a decision. Requests for instrument loans should be directed to [email protected].

STORYBOOK THEATERThere is a lot to be learned in a children’s story...how to be nimble and quick enough to jump over a candlestick; how to, like three little pigs, learn from experience and work together; and much, much more! Each week in Storybook Theater, students explore and experience a new story from around the world, building skills in acting, ensemble, movement and creative problem solving while brining literature to life. Students will perform original theatricals at ASP Recitals. Grades: 3rd-5thTime: 3:30-4:30Taught By: Cal ShakesRate for ASP Plan Users: $175Cost: $195www.calshakes.org

STEEL DRUMSSteel drums were developed on the island of Trinidad and are known for their sweet, melodic sound. Playing the steel drums or “pan” provide an excellent vehicle for learning musical timing, hand-eye coordination and teamwork by combining rhythm skills with melody and harmony in a small group. These skills may be applied to any musical instrument or any team environment. Grades: Kindergarten-3rdTime: 3:30-4:30Taught By: Mark RosenthalRate for ASP Plan Users: $165Cost: $185
