After-School Care
The Richmond District After School Collaborative (RDASC) is happy to announce open registration for next school year (2008-2009.) Please take note of a couple changes to our registration procedure for our ExCEL families at Argonne, Lafayette, and George Peabody. RDASC will be charging a $10 application fee and a $50 enrollment fee for ExCEL families. Please read (and re-read, if necessary) all the important information regarding registration before contacting us with your questions. We realize that the uncertainty of the registration process can be stressful and we’re working hard to be as clear and concise as possible taking into consideration your needs and our capacity to meet your needs.
Here’s what you need to know for registering your child/ren in RDASC 2008-2009:
Every RDASC child who is in their first year in the program is guaranteed a second year pending timely return of the pre-registration form and payment of a deposit equaling one month’s tuition. If this is your first year in the program you will receive a letter in the mail asking you to pre-register for 08-09. You will receive this letter the week of April 14th. After receiving this letter, you must come to our office (741– 30th Ave) to pay your deposit the week of May 5th ending Friday, May 9th at 6:00pm. If you fail to pre-register within the dates specified, we will assume that you do not wish to continue with RDASC in 08-09 and your place will be given to another child.
If this is your child(ren)’s second or more year in the program, you must submit a new application form every year after your initial two years. You will be considered only after all new applicants have been considered. Application forms will be available in your child’s school office and at our administrative office at the Richmond District Neighborhood Center at 741– 30th Ave. beginning April 14th.
Application forms and $10 application payment fee are due in our office by Friday, May 9th at 6:00pm. Registration IS NOT on a first-come, first-serve basis. RDASC reviews and accepts applicants on several different factors, such as, a balance grade levels and gender, taking references/referrals from our partners agency, RAMS, consulting with Principals, teachers and staff. Simply submit your application form to our office by May 9th and you will be considered for enrollment.
