Program requirements:

The State of California and the San Diego County Office of Education have tightened the attendance requirements for all before and after-school programs that are funded through the After-School Education and Safety (ASES) initiative.  Since these programs are free of charge we must follow these requirements in order to continue providing programming for our students.  We are required to use an automated sign-in/sign-out system this year which will report attendance directly to SDCOE.  Unfortunately students will be dropped from the program (by SDCOE) if they do not meet the requirements or follow the times noted on their late arrival/early release forms.

Attendance Guidelines are:

  • Before-School Program:  A minimum of 3 days/week (with student arriving by 7:30).
  • After-School Program: A minimum of 3 days/week and 9 hours/week.  The 9 hour requirement can be waived if an approved Early Release form is submitted.  The 3 day/week requirement cannot be waived.  We cannot accommodate students on a “drop-in” basis.

Program Activities:

  • Before-School Program: Supervised activities in the gym, Bobcat Center, library and computer lab.
  • After-School Program: Academic support and homework, recreational sports, arts and crafts, computers, electronic and board games, cooking.  Click below on Current Activities Calendar for monthly updates.

Applications are available in the school office or click the following link(s).  A separate application is required for each program.  AM Program Application/PM Program Application

As described by the U.S. Office of Education in 1972, "Gifted and talented children are those identified by professionally qualified persons who by virtue of outstanding abilities are capable of high performance.  These are children who require differentiated educational programs and/or services beyond those normally provided by the regular school program in order to realize areas of their contribution to self and society."
