After School Activities

All after school programs will meet outdoors to the greatest extent possible. All after school programs will ask students to wear masks when interacting with each other, and provide frequent opportunities for mask breaks distanced from other students.

After Care for Preschoolers and Kinder Rec for Kindergarteners
Please complete the appropriate application each year even if you do not plan to use the program in case you need to use it on an emergency basis.
  • After Care Application and Expectations for Preschoolers. Email to sreynolds@pacificesd.org.
  • Kinder Rec Application and Expectations for Kindergarteners. Email to rperez@pacificesd.org.

Preschoolers have the option to participate in After Care from 12:30-2:40. Kindergarteners may participate in Kinder Rec from 12:30-2:45, except on Wednesdays, when Kinder Rec is from 12:30-1:00 and then kindergartens may join regular Rec (see below). After Care is run by Stacey Reynolds and Julia Valle, and Kinder Rec is run by Rosie Perez and Jason Cowley.

Both programs will focus on outside play separated from older students. While these will be run as separate programs, if one program is full and more families need care, we may place students in the other program.

The fees are the same for each program, and depend on your family's situation:
  • ​For families who would not meet the income qualifications for state preschool (available here), the cost is $15 per day for scheduled days or $18 per day for drop-in days. The cost for Kinder Rec on Wednesdays from 12:30-1:00 is $4. Families with two students simultaneously enrolled in After Care or Kinder Rec may receive a 25% sibling discount on the second child. Scheduled days must be paid for, even on days when the student is absent. Both programs may be full, so space is only guaranteed for families who schedule their days in advance. 
  • For families who meet the income qualifications for state preschool (available here) the cost is $7 per day, either scheduled or drop-in. The cost for Kinder Rec on Wednesdays from 12:30-1:00 is $4. Scheduled days must be paid for, even on days when the student is absent. Both programs may be filled, so space is only guaranteed for families who schedule their days in advance. Sibling discounts are not available.
  • For students who are English Language Learners, both programs are FREE for 2021-22. (Our ability to fund this option in future years is not guaranteed.) Families must still complete the appropriate paperwork and schedule their days of use so that we know how many students to expect.

Changes to a student's scheduled prepaid days can be made on a space-available basis. If you have signed up but your student will not be using the spot, please notify the office so another family can take the slot. Families will be invoiced monthly by email and should pay promptly.

Kindergarteners, but NOT preschoolers, may attend After School Recreation after Kinder Rec ends. Parents will be responsible for the additional fees.

After School Recreation for Kindergarteners through Sixth Graders
Please complete the application each year even if you do not plan to use the program in case you need to use it on an emergency basis:
  • Rec Application and Expectations for Kindergarten through Sixth Grade Students. Email to jcowley@pacificesd.org.

As a service to working or busy parents, kindergarten through sixth graders can participate in After School Recreation. (Preschoolers cannot attend after school recreation.) 

Jason Cowley is the coordinator for the program. The program hours are 2:45-5:00 Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday and 1:00-5:00 on Wednesdays. Kindergarteners are not allowed to attend After School Rec on Wednesdays until 2:45, instead they must be enrolled in Kinder Rec. Wednesdays are a very busy day for Rec, and we cannot provide adequate supervision for kindergarteners until that time.

The Rec schedule will generally be:
  • M, Tu, Th, F 2:45-3:15 - Free play
  • W 1:00-3:15 - Outside play and longer games, crafts, and activities
  • 3:15-4:00 - Snack and outside games
  • 4:00-5:00 - Homework help and reading time
In order to accommodate this schedule and allow students to enjoy and complete games and activities, preferred pickup times are 3:15, 4:00, and 5:00. Late fees or $1 per minute will be imposed starting at 5:10.

Fees for Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday are $4 if picked up by 3:15 p.m. and $10 if picked up between 3:15 and 5:00 p.m. Fees for Wednesday are $9 if picked up by 3:15 and $15 if picked up by between 3:15 and 5:00 p.m. For students who are English Language Learners only, the Rec program is FREE for 2021-22. (Our ability to fund this option in future years is not guaranteed.) Due to the low overall fees, there are no sibling or income-based discounts in the K-6 Rec program.

Students must be signed up for the program, and families must sign students out each day. Please notify Jason of changes to a student's schedule.

Tutoring/Homework Help
Pacific School works with the Davenport Resource Service Center to offer tutoring/homework help after school to qualified 2nd-6th grade students. Students who qualify for free or reduced price lunch may participate in the after school recreation program free of charge between dismissal from school and the beginning of their tutoring appointment. Tutors work with students on homework, reading, English language, and other skills as needed. Students are expected to stay for their entire tutoring appointment each week, regardless of whether they have completed their homework. Pacific School is very grateful for efforts of the Davenport Resource Service Center, which make the tutoring program possible.

Chorus
Traditionally, Pacific School offers an after school chorus program. For public health and budgetary reasons, this program will not be available for 2021-22, but the Board and Parents' Club hope that the program will be able to return in the future.
