JRE Pittsford PTSA | After School Enrichment

After School Enrichment

The mission of Pittsford PTSA's After School Enrichment Program is to provide safe and supervised after-school educational, enriching and/or recreational programs for school-age children. Building PTSAs choose programs based on their individual demographics, interest level, and parent commitment. The building principal must approve all programs.

Pittsford Central School Districts strives to make our school environment one in which all children can learn and succeed. If any after school enrichment offering serves as a financial hardship or strain on your family, please work directly with Principal Barg or Counselor Liz Candeais at any time to secure necessary financial assistance through a confidential conversation.

Please note: Programs on this page are for Jefferson Road Elementary students only. They generally begin in October, January, and March.

IMPORTANT REMINDERS ABOUT AFTER SCHOOL ENRICHMENT:

PTSA policy is children in grades K – 5 are welcome to register for ASEP programs, as specified in program descriptions.
Per district PTSA policy, parents are required to volunteer a minimum of one session.
If there is no school due to weather, conference day, or break, there is no ASEP.
No late bus provided. Parents, or a designated adult, must arrange to pick up their child at the conclusion of the program session. Adults other than parents, whom you authorize to pick up your child, MUST be listed in the required field when registering online.
For pick-up, parents or the designated adults must sign out your child. Be prepared to show ID to the volunteer signing your child out for the safety of all of the children in the program.
No Refunds provided when your child is absent, sick, or participating in an activity that conflicts with the ASEP class.
Please check your schedule as classes may overlap with other school activities including band, chorus, orchestra and student council.
