What are Kids’ Clubs?
WES Kids’ Clubs are a PTA-sponsored after-school program at Westchester Elementary School that gives your students the opportunity to participate in enrichment programs designed around their interests. Registration is completed on the Westchester Givebacks website (see link above). The fee for each club is $100 per student. Registration fees are used to pay instructors for their time, purchase supplies, and support PTA programming for all WES students and staff. Financial aid is available and Ride-sharing may be possible, pending parent availability — please email weskidsclubs@gmail.com for details.
How does it work?
At the end of the school day, participating students will be called to meet the faculty liaison until their club instructor picks them up and takes them to their meeting area. Students should bring a non-messy, peanut-free snack to eat before the start of clubs.
All Kids’ Clubs students will be sent to clubs by 4:15 p.m. Club sessions are one hour long. Students are dismissed for pick up at 5:15 p.m. Please be ready to pick up your student promptly. Students with more than two late pickups may have their right to participate in clubs forfeited without a refund.
We know that sometimes life gets in the way and your student might need to miss a club session. When that happens, we want to be sure that your student is dismissed to the correct place (after care/car/bus/walker) rather than sent to clubs at dismissal time. If you need to change your child’s dismissal plan, please email weskidsclubs@gmail.com, jbaldwin3@bcps.org, ckorzec@bcps.org, Kids Clubs faculty liaison (email provided after registration) and your child’s teacher to ensure all necessary parties are made aware of the change.
