Important Information about After School Enrichment Programs (ASEP) classes at Ortega:
1. Sign up directly with the teacher or organization offering the class. (Clicking on the flyer links to the respective registration site.)
2. Classes that include TK and Kindergarten students will begin with a 15-45 minute lunch period for students to eat food that they have brought from home. Students will be supervised at all times.
3. Students in TK and Kindergarten will be met at their class and walked to the location of the enrichment program. They will be walked to their onsite aftercare program (either Happy Hall or Boys and Girls Club) afterwards, if applicable.
4. Classes that include grades 1-5 will begin at 2:35 with a supervised snack time for 1st-3rd graders. Instruction will begin at 2:55 when older students arrive.
5. Please notify your child’s teacher and their aftercare program of their enrollment in an ASEP class, as well as the necessary dates and details of that class.
6. If you have any other questions, please contact the program or teacher providing the ASEP class, or reach out to ASEP@ortegapto.org.
