After School Programs (BASE)
The BASE Program
The BASE program operates in each elementary school for children in Grades K–5, and at The Children’s Way (TCW) for preschoolers ages 3–5 years.
Each site provides:
- A nutritious after-school snack
- Engaging, hands-on enrichment activities
- Indoor and outdoor free play opportunities
Elementary families can choose a schedule of 2–5 days per week, with pick-up options at 4:30 PM or 6:00 PM.
TCW families also select 2–5 days per week, with a standard pick-up time of 4:45 PM (except Wednesdays, which have a 2:45 PM pick-up due to the school’s half-day schedule).
Registration Info
For Current BASE Families
Current families can register for the following year during a two-week priority window at the beginning of April (March 30th to April 12, 2026).
If a current BASE student has a rising pre-school or kindergarten sibling (or siblings), they can be registered during this window – you do not need to fill out an interest form for siblings entering the program in pre-school or kindergarten.
Note: The registration link will be emailed to current families and available only during this period. Once the window closes, site, grade, and scheduling information will be reviewed to finalize enrollment.
For New Families with Children Entering Pre-School or Kindergarten
After the current-family registration period, available BASE slots for new families will be determined by a lottery based on the responses to our interest forms (see below).
If your family is new to the BASE program and you wish to enroll your pre-schooler(s) and/or kindergartner(s) into the after-school program, please fill out the appropriate interest form(s) below:
