After School Programs (K-8) - ASES and 21st Century
The After School Education and Safety Program (ASES) is the result of the 2002 voter approved initiative, Proposition 49. The ASES program funds the establishment of local after school education and enrichment programs that provide literacy, academic enrichment and safe alternatives for students in kindergarten through eighth grade. 21st Century is a federally funded after school program that requires the same program components as ASES. Each of these programs is provided at no cost to the children and families of the participating school sites.
The After School Program is offered Monday through Friday, from the time school is dismissed until 6:00pm, coinciding with each school site's daily schedule and school calendar.
ASES program components will be provided by CUSD in partnership with community-based organizations such as: Girl Scouts, Ceres Partnership for Healthy Children, etc. Through these partnerships an array of recreational, academic and enrichment activities will be provided to provide our students a safe and fun place to be after school.
Students can choose from many activities, including: art, dance, games, and outdoor recreation activities. Children who come to this program enjoy a snack, work on homework, and then choose an activity to participate in. Each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday students will also participate in targeted academic instruction through the Academic Intervention Program, in addition to homework assistance.
