MAY NEWS AT ASC
THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING US TO SERVE YOUR FAMILY!
 Hello ASC Families,

The OSD has indicated that the last day of school for everyone will be Thursday, 6/13/2019. RCI, NKE, PVE and BKE will be released at their usual time. ASC will be closed all day on Friday, 6/14 through Tuesday, 6/18 to get ready for our summer program. We will open up for our summer program on Wednesday, 6/19 through Friday, 8/23/2019.
 
We need to turn around our program to be ready for our summer session as well as allow for the OSD Teachers to close up their classrooms and then have the janitors clean the 1st and 2nd grade classrooms for us to utilize for our summer session. We will begin our program on 6/19/2019 and look forward to providing an enriching environment for your child/youth for our summer program. You will still arrive and depart from the cafeteria.
 
 
Summer Forms Completed and Due into ASC office by 5/8
Summer contracts have been distributed ( or mailed to you). All of the forms must be returned to the ASC office by Wednesday, May 8, 2019 to ensure we have all of the pertinent information on our families.  The field trip roster will be sent out in an email as soon as all of our field trips are confirmed.
 
 
 



 
 

 

InThis Issue: 

Outside Gear/Shoes

Please be sure your child has tennis shoes for all field trips each Wednesday. We will be doing a great deal of walking, so we want to be sure all children have comfortable shoes on. We ask that all children/youth have outside gear to enjoy the playground and walking field trips. We have the same rules as OSD. All children need appropriate gear to play in the NKE Big gym or outside. Please have your child wear or bring along tennis shoes to enjoy our walks and gross motor time. Flip flops tend to break, so having a back up pair of shoes is needed at ASC.

Summer School
Please make a copy of your child’s summer school classes for Jamie, Janelle and Lisa to be sure we have them on our list to take for summer school classes. We will have 2-3 staff members who will be taking and picking up our children/youths.
Our summer session is scheduled from 7/8/2019 through 8/2/2019.
 
THE MAJORITY OF SUMMER SCHOOL CLASSES WILL BE HELD AT THE OHS. WE WILL HAVE A BUS THAT WE HAVE CONTRACTED OUT WITH THE OSD TO TAKE THE CHILDREN/YOUTHS ALONG WITH OUR SUMMER SCHOOL SPECIALISTS FROM 7/2-8/3.  IF YOUR CHILD WILL BE TAKING THIS BUS, THERE WILL BE A FEE PER CHILD TO HELP US OFFSET THE COST OF THIS SHUTTLE SERVICE. THE FEE PER CHILD WILL BE $30.00. THIS FEE PER CHILD WILL BE IF YOUR CHILD TAKES 1 OR MORE SUMMER SCHOOL CLASSES.
 
SUMMER SCHOOL CLASSES THIS SUMMER WILL “TYPICALLY” BE HELD AT…..
 
8:00-9:00
 
9:05-10:05
 
10:10-11:10
 
11:15-12:15
 
 
OUR PLAN IS TO TAKE OUR ASC CHILDREN AND OUR SUMMER SCHOOL SPECIALISTS TO THE OHS ON THE BUS APPROXIMATELY 20 MINUTES BEFORE THEIR CLASS BEGINS. ALL 8:00 CHILDREN TAKING THE BUS MUST BE AT ASC BY 7:30 TO ENSURE WE CAN DEPART AT 7:40 FOR CLASS. IF FOR ANY REASON YOUR CHILD MISSES THE BUS, WE WILL HAVE YOU DROP THEM OFF AT THE OHS. THS WAY WE CAN ENSURE OUR CHILDREN HAVE EATEN, SIGNED OUT AND DROPPED OFF IN A TIMELY FASHION. WE WILL NOT TAKE ANY CHILDREN TO AND FROM SWIM LESSONS DURING THESE SESSIONS OF 7/2-8/3. WE WILL NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO GET THEM OFF OF THE BUS AND TRANSPORT THEM TO THE POOL.
 
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SIGN UP YOUR CHILD FOR SWIMMING LESSONS, PLEASE SIGN THEM UP FOR THE FIRST TWO WEEKS OF SUMMER  THAT TAKES PLACE FROM 6/17 UNTIL 7/5 AND/OR 8/5 THROUGH 8/23. OUR SUMMER SCHOOL SPECIALISTS WILL TAKE AND PICK THEM UP DURING THIS DESIGNATED TIME FRAME. IF YOUR CHILD IS 8 OR ABOVE AND YOU SIGN A RELEASE FORM ALLOWING THEM TO WALK TO AND FROM SWIMMING LESSONS, THEY CAN GO ON THEIR OWN AS LONG AS THEY DO NOT HAVE A SUMMER SCHOOL CLASS BEFORE OR AFTER THEIR DESIGNATED SWIMMING LESSON.
 
 
 
Please inform us what classes, the names of the classes,  dates and times of each class as soon as you receive verification of the classes you signed up for each child. We make a spreadsheet up to be sure we can account for each child as well as knowing where they are at all times. There were over 85 children attending summer school activities last summer.  The quicker you inform us what classes, dates of the events and times of each class, the better we are prepared.  We will not accept the schedule of events the day the class begins! ASC staff members do not bring children/youths to or from RCI (we will take youths to Jump Start RCI and the Jump Start to OMS), OMS, Jaycee Park or Academy of Sound.
 
 
Please note…If your child is involved with swimming, soccer, tennis, softball/baseball, etc. please send them with the required items that they will need during their class/lesson. We do not have extra shin guards, water bottles, shorts, shirts. Please supply them every day or your child will need to watch their lesson/class.

Late Pickup

Our WI License states our hours and we have to abide by them. We are open from 7:00 A.M -5:45 P.M. Please adhere to our drop off and pick up times. Our Teachers and Directors have a set time that they all work to and from during the day and the Board wants them to return home after the set closing time to their own families. The clocks that are in the cafeteria are the clocks that ASC uses to determine the correct time. We close at 5:45 P.M. at our ASC/NKE site. Late fees of $1.00 per child will be assessed for a late pickup.
 
We considerate an honor to work with our families. Please understand that there is a set time that ASC is open and closed for the day.

 

Goals of the After School Clubs Experience

The ASC Staff understands the importance and impact this program has on youth.  When creating programming and leading activities we keep the following goals in mind:

1. Developing greater self-confidence and a sense of independence.
2. Encouraging respect of self, others and our environment.
3. Developing a sense of teamwork, group decision-making and a spirit of cooperative living.
4. Providing opportunities for encouraging personal growth through exposure to positive role models.
5. Providing safe and healthy outdoor and indoor fun in a caring, supportive environment.
 
Developmentally Appropriate Practices
ASC staff and management team believes that each child should have a positive and safe environment that they can reach their fullest potential through developmentally appropriate activities. Teachers recognize the importance of both child-guided and adult-guided learning activities/experiences. Teachers find opportunities to enhance children’s thinking and learning skills through the use of hands-on activities. Teachers incorporate ideas and content from multiple areas such as themes, projects, creative opportunities and learning experiences to understand concepts through our School Age Curriculum.
