PROGRAM DESCRIPTION AND GOALS The ASES Program is an extension of our current
enrichment program. With funding from the State of
California, we have been given the opportunity to extend our program to
five days per week. In addition, we are able to add
academic and recreational components. PROGRAM ELEMENTS The ASES program consists of three components: 1)
academic, 2) enrichment, and 3) recreational. The
educational component consists of curriculum that reinforces the school’s
academic program. The enrichment component will
include, but will not be limited to visual and performing arts, music and
fitness. ADMISSION Admission to the Language Academy of Sacramento
(LAS) ASES Program is based upon parental commitment to the program
requirements. Slots will be allocated to students in two categories.
Category 1) 75% of slots will be allocated to students based on academic
need, Free and Reduced Lunch qualification, and date of submission.
Category 2) 25% of the slots will be allocated to all other students.
Dates of application submission will determine a student’s acceptance into
the program. After following the criteria, class lists will be created. A
waiting list will be created as the need arises. Students will be invited
to join the ASES program as spaces become available. MONTHLY FEES The monthly fee for the ASES program is
$100.00. If you qualify for free or reduced lunch, you may qualify
for a waiver. Payment is due the 1st of the month.
FULL TIME ENROLLMENT The ASES program is funded through a grant from the
State of California. The program requires that students
attend the program full time, five days a week. Full
time enrollment is considered daily attendance until 6:00 pm.
Students who do not attend on a full time basis will be dropped
from the program. EARLY RELEASE/LATE ARRIVAL If you need to pick up your child before 6:00 pm, a
note must be provided stating the reason at least 48 hours in advance to
the ASES coordinator to determine that your reason falls within policy
guidelines. If it is recurring, a waiver must be
submitted and approved 1 week prior to the first early dismissal date.
A parent or legal guardian may request late arrival
or early release for any of the reasons listed on the Early Release
policy. When picking up a student for early release,
the parent or legal guardian must go to the school office, sign out the
student, write the time of day, and state the reason. THERE ARE NO
EXCEPTIONS. Students who arrive late must go directly to the
school office to sign in and state why they are arriving late.
Please refer to early dismissal policy and waiver. The ASES program is offered every day that school is
in session, with the exception of staff development days which will be
posted in advance. The ASES program begins at the end
of the school day and runs until 6:00 pm. REPORTING ABSENCES If your child is going to be absent from the program,
please give the staff advanced notice by calling the school office
(916.277.7137). Notifying staff of your child’s absence
is important for the safety of your child, and the peace of mind of staff.
If your child does not attend the program, and we have not been
notified of his/her absence, we will assume that your child is lost or in
danger and will contact the necessary officials. EXCESSIVE ABSENCES Students will be permitted a total of 5 absences
from the program per school year. If a student misses more
than 5 days she/he will be dropped from the program and their slot will be
given to a student on the waiting list. SIGN IN AND SIGN OUT PROCEDURES Sign In: All students enrolled in the
ASES program are signed in by ASES program staff directly after the
regular school day ends. All students participating in
the ASES program must report to the cafeteria. SICK CHILDREN If your child appears sick, or complains of a
sickness while participating in the program, the staff will notify the
parent/guardian immediately. Staff will ask you to pick up your
child from the program to prevent the risk of infection. The program
is not equipped to care for sick children. MEDICAL & EMERGENCY INFORMATION The emergency contact information you completed is
extremely important. Please be sure to notify the staff of any
changes in your child’s medical needs, as well as any changes that might
occur with your home and work numbers, and the emergency contact numbers
you have supplied. MEDICATION The ASES staff is not trained to dispense medications
to students. If a child requires medication, parents must submit a
note from a doctor and train their child to take medication. INJURIES If your child is injured, the program staff will take
whatever steps may be necessary to ensure that your child receives
emergency medical care. This can include, but is not limited to,
administering emergency first aid or CPR, attempting to contact you or
your emergency contacts, calling an ambulance or paramedic, calling your
family doctor, and/or accompanying the child to an emergency hospital. DONATIONS If you would like to donate money, materials or resources to the after school program, we would be more than grateful for your support. If you wish to donate to the ASES program, please contact the site coordinator, Fátima Castañeda or bring your donations to the front office. |
