After School Enrichment

For K-5th Grade

Our After School Enrichment Program (ASE) is your child’s home away from home during the school year. We provide fun, enriching activities every day of the week, from cooking and crafts to sports and games. We eagerly await your child to join us!

All staff are background checked, and CPR/AED and first aid certified.

  • SCH sets our tuition based on the cost to operate the program for a full school year, not on a month-to-month basis. We consider school session breaks, no school days, the start and end of the year, and other factors when setting our tuition, and then spread it equally over a ten-month period. This allows our families and our organization to plan on a consistent budget throughout the year. Given that most, if not all, of our families will be with us for the entire school year, the consistent tuition allows us to maintain a high quality level of care and support to our staff and families.

  • If you do not want to utilize our after care program all the way through the end of the school year, you must notify us before May 1st. If you withdraw after May 1st, you will still be charged the remaining amount of tuition for the month of May, and June tuition as a cancellation fee.

  • Students will arrive at their designated time, depending on which school they attend.

    Arrival time-4 pm: Recess and snack rotations

    4:00-5:15: Small group enrichment options (kids get to choose!)

    5:15-6:00: Regroup for supervised play time

  • Examples of our enrichment options include arts and crafts, cooking skills, gym games, outdoor explorations, fiber arts, and so much more! We add different enrichment sessions throughout the year to let the kids explore a variety of activities.

  • When registering, please select the program that best matches your student’s arrival time.

    For an arrival time between 2:30 and 3:15, register for the Llewellyn program.

    For an arrival time after 3:15 pm, register for the Duniway program.

    You will be responsible for organizing transportation. In the past, students from Winterhaven and Ardenwald have organized carpools. Students from ACCESS also have a bus stop at SCH.

  • We know how hungry kids are after school! That’s why a nutritious daily snack, served with water, milk, and fruit, is included with your registration. A monthly snack calendar is sent out in advance, so families with food sensitivities and allergies can plan ahead if our snack does not meet your child’s dietary needs. Please note that we do not serve nuts, but we do not have a completely nut-free kitchen.

  • All of our after-school staff are first aid, CPR, and AED certified. Staff 18+ are part of the Early Learning Division’s Central Background Registry and participate in fingerprinting and an extensive background check. Staff younger than 18 are also background-checked.

  • We maintain a 1:15 ratio (1 staff member to every 15 kids)

  • We offer space for up to 80 students to be enrolled in our program each day. Students are divided into different classrooms (enrichments) to have a smaller, welcoming environment and explore their own interests with a trusted instructor.

  • Our reading club is a volunteer-led activity that many of our after school kids love! Participation in the reading club is optional. We have a large collection of books for all reading levels, and our reading volunteer coordinator takes trips to the library to add more on a regular basis. All reading volunteers are background-checked.

    If you would like to be a reading club volunteer, please contact Leigh at Leigh@sellwoodcommunityhouse.org.

    We love when parents, grandparents, and other community members want to come read with our after-school kids!

  • Yes! These programs are open to everyone, whether or not your child is enrolled in our after school program.
