Elementary AfterStein is by invitation only at this time. We are very excited to offer this free program to selected students and their families for the first time. Since this is a new program we had to start small, but rest assured we are working hard to grow AfterStein and offer it to more students and their families, as soon as possible. AfterStein (ELO-P) funds are designated by the California Department of Education for English Language Learners, students who qualify for Free and Reduced Lunch and foster youth.
How many students are currently enrolled in AfterStein at the elementary school?
We have approximately 130 students enrolled in AfterStein at this time.
Can I choose which clubs my child attend?
No. AfterStein seeks to incorporate student voice. Therefore students will practice using their thinking and self-management skills, by selecting which enrichment clubs they would like to attend. Students in transitional kindergarten and kindergarten will not need to select which clubs they attend, they enjoy both enrichment clubs opportunities everyday, for an abbreviated amount of time.
