Cave Hill After School Program
Welcome to the After School Program at
Cave Hill School!
Dear Family and Friends for the After School Program at CHS,
We would like to take this opportunity to welcome back our returning families and invite all our new families at CHS to join us for another exciting year of After School. Please, read below to familiarize yourself with the program and changes for the 2024-25 school year.
The After School Program at Cave Hill School will start on Monday September 30, and will be open Monday-Thursday from the end of the school day until 5:00pm. A late bus will be offered on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
All students will begin the afternoon with snacks and recess. From 3:30-4:15 each day, K-2 students will gather for an afternoon meeting, a read aloud, and an opportunity to complete 20 minutes of independent reading or finish work from the school day. Meanwhile, students in grades 3-5 will have a 45-minute homework/reading lab. This will be a great opportunity for students to complete daily homework assignments. Tutoring will also be provided during this time. From 4:15-5:00, all students will participate in one of the fun activities offered each day.
In order to help offset the cost of materials and supplies, we are asking for a once-yearly enrollment fee for students who wish to attend the After School Program. This once-yearly fee will be based on free/reduced lunch status with a multi-student discount for families as follows:
- Full paid lunch: $20 per child/$30 per family
- Reduced lunch: $15 per child/$20 per family
- Free lunch: $10 per child/$15 per family
Scholarships are available to families unable to pay the enrollment fee, simply check that box on the enrollment form. NO STUDENT WILL BE TURNED AWAY DUE TO A FAMILY’S INABILITY TO PAY.
Please, read through the attached Family Handbook. If you think this program is right for your child, please complete the enrollment form and return it to the school office.. Students will need to have completed enrollment forms before they can begin staying for the After School Program. If you have any questions, please contact Cassie McVay at [email protected].
I can’t wait to get started!
