    Esperero Canyon School After School Program!

    OUR PROGRAMS

    COMMUNITY SCHOOLS OFFERS:

    • STUDY HALL - Each day after school Monday – Friday, 2:45 – 4:15pm and Wednesday mornings from 7:30 – 9:00am.
    • ENRICHMENT CLASSES – Each quarter after school (and before school on Late Start Wed.) Art, Computer Coding and Game Design, Chess, Drama, Crafting, Yearbook, and more!
    • ATHLETICS - We offer a wide variety of sports activities for our students, both Intramural (6th grade) and Interscholastic (7th & 8th grades) An athletic packet will need to be uploaded to the RegisterMyAthlete program as described below prior to the start of any of our “Athletics” options.

    HOW TO GET ENROLLED:

    We will post the brochures in ParentSquare prior to each quarter so that you know what is coming up. We will also post the brochure on the district website under Community Schools HERE!

    (Click on SCHOOL PROGRAMS and then your student’s school.)

    SOME TIPS:

    Our classes, especially athletic programs fill up very quickly - sometimes within a few minutes! We encourage you to, if you haven’t already, set up a Community Schools account ahead of time to make registration quick and easy:  ENROLL

    NOTE: If you already have an account, you will simply log in, and update your account by clicking on the NEW 202X/202X REGISTRATION button and make sure your info is current or updated, paying particular attention to the GRADE and SCHOOL of your student.

    • ALL students who signed up for Athletics are required to have a current sports physical and a completed athletic packet in order to participate. This must be turned in before they can attend a practice or participate in any games. Go to the AKTIVATE program, ATHLETIC PACKETS, and create an account. Here, you will download, sign and upload the forms to us for safe keeping. We will keep it on file for the entire school year, so you only have to do this once per school year.
    • Class enrollment is ONLY available ONLINE. If a class or sport is full, you can be added to the waitlist. You will be contacted if a spot becomes available to you.
    • Study Hall is available for you to enroll in on a PER DAY basis. You will select which days you need on the calendar for as far out as you would like to schedule. You MUST enroll by noon the day-of for Study Hall in order to avoid drop-in fees. If your child shows up to study hall, and is not enrolled (on the roster), he/she will be considered a “drop in” which will incur a $15 fee per occasion.

    BUS TRANSPORTATION:

    We DO provide bus transportation home after Community Schools activities for students who already have a bus pass. This does not include half days. Bus transportation will also be provided to and from most normal sporting events. Some exceptions apply.

    Please refer to the sport schedule for specifics.
