General Information
Welcome to AEP!
The After-school Enrichment Program (AEP) provides extended care, childcare, camp and enrichment class opportunities to PHS families.
The Neighborhood
The extended day after-school program is now known as “The Neighborhood.” The Neighborhood is open to all students TK-8. The program starts at dismissal. The Neighborhood will be divided into two groups, TK-2 and 3-8, for most of the day, with opportunities for mixed group activities and play. During the extended day, students are provided with a light snack, outdoor and indoor play time, and structured activities. Students in 3rd-8th grade will also have 30 minutes of academic time for homework and study.
Enrichment Classes
Exciting and engaging enrichment classes are offered during the extended day during three 8-10 week sessions and incur additional fees. Examples of classes include Spanish, art, music lessons, hapkido and dance. A catalog of classes, rates, procedures and a registration form will be distributed before each session.
Childcare & Camp
Childcare is available on select in-service and conference days from 8am-6pm, and camp is available during February and spring breaks from 9am-5pm. Advance reservation is required to reserve a spot. Childcare and camp are offered contingent upon a minimum enrollment of 10 students. On childcare and camp days, day-long activities and field trips are planned to last most of the day. These include visits to the park, library, museums or zoo and doing art, cooking, science and other activities.
