After School Activities
After Care for Preschoolers and Kindergarteners
Application and Expectations 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.
Preschoolers and kindergarteners have the option to participate in After School Care from 12:30-2:40. Children participate in inside and outside play separated from older students. The program is led by coordinators Stacey Reynolds (Mondays and Fridays), Martha Gagnier (Tuesdays and Thursdays), and Violy Law (Wednesdays).
The cost is $15 per day prepaid or $18 per day drop-in, except for those families receiving a reduced price (see next paragraph). Paying families must choose whether to prepay for specific days all year or to use the program on a drop-in basis. Families choosing to prepay will be guaranteed a space in the program during those days, however, they also must agree to pay for the space even if the student is sick or absent. There are NO refunds for prepaid slots, even if the slot is filled by another student. Changes to a student's scheduled prepaid days can be made on a space-available basis with two weeks' notice.
New for 2019-20: As a trial program, Pacific School is offering After Care scholarships to students and families when all of the following criteria are met:
All students must be signed up for the program in the After Care binder in the office. Enrollment is limited and the program is often full, so drop-in space is not guaranteed. 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.

Tutoring/Homework Help
Pacific School works with the Davenport Resource Service Center to offer tutoring/homework help after school to qualified 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.

New for 2019-20: As a trial program, Pacific School is offering After Care scholarships to students and families when all of the following criteria are met:
- The student is enrolled in the state preschool program OR the student is in kindergarten and receives free or reduced price lunch.
- The student is developmentally ready for a longer day and follows all of the behavior expectations outlined in the program information.
- The family needs the additional child care to allow other adults to work, attend school, etc. We ask families not to take advantage of after care scholarships when other child care options are available. Excessive use of the program limits our ability to offer scholarships in the future.
- There is space available in the program.

Chorus
Pacific School offers chorus after school for interested students in kindergarten* through sixth grade. Led by Music Teacher Vivian Simon, chorus students learn a diversity of engaging and seasonal songs, including rounds and some work with percussion instruments. Chorus meets after school on Thursdays, from 2:45 to 4:15. All students receive a snack. Chorus participates in various musical performances throughout the year, both for the school community and occasionally in the larger community for charitable venues such as nursing homes. Chorus is free for students who qualify for free or reduced price lunch and $100 per semester ($200 for the year) otherwise. However, tuition is meant to offset costs, not to discourage any student from participating. Chorus is open to all interested students regardless of ability to pay. All interested students are encouraged to come to the first few classes of the semester to determine whether chorus is right for them. *Kindergarten students are dismissed at 12:30. If participating in chorus, kindergarteners must either be enrolled in After Care (see above) or be picked up from school and returned between 2:45 and 3:00. Please note that as of September 2019, After Care on Thursdays is full. If you have not already signed up for it, you will need to make alternative child care arrangements. |
