After School Enrichment Clubs
The Afterschool Enrichment Club Program is designed to provide students with meaningful, engaging, and developmentally appropriate experiences beyond the traditional school day. Our goal is to foster academic growth, social-emotional development, and creative exploration in a safe and supportive environment. Through a variety of club offerings, students are encouraged to discover new interests, build confidence, and strengthen their critical thinking skills.
Information on our first session coming soon! Check back for details.

Can I sign my child up for more than one Enrichment Club? YES!
How do I sign my child up for an Enrichment Club? Registration opens December 5th at 9:00am
on our website: www.SkanEdFoundation.org/clubs
What if I am waitlisted for a Club? Enrollment will automatically close and a waitlist will be created
in the event of a Club reaching maximum enrollment capacity. You will be contacted by phone or email if a
spot opens for your child.
How much do the Enrichment Clubs cost? The Skaneateles Education Foundation will be managing
and subsidizing the cost of the afterschool enrichment programs to make it affordable to families. Each club
will cost $50 per child—that’s approximately $8 per class!The Skaneateles Education Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. If the enrollment fee presents a challenge, please know that SEF is committed to working with you to provide a suitable arrangement.
Who will be teaching the Enrichment Clubs? Enrichment Clubs are run by certified, Skaneateles
school teachers. Prior to the first day of your child’s club meeting, you will receive a welcome email from the
Club Teacher with his/her contact information. Depending on enrollment size, some clubs may have high
school student volunteers helping alongside the Club Teacher.
Will there be Enrichment Club makeup dates? In the event of a school closure or early dismissal,
Clubs will be canceled, students will follow their normal early dismissal procedure for transportation home
from school, and a Club makeup date will be scheduled. Families will be notified by email about the makeup
date. There will be NO make ups for students who miss their assigned club meeting due to illness or any other
reason.
What are the drop off/pick up procedures for the Enrichment Clubs? Students will be dismissed at the end of the school day to go to their Club location (just as they would be dismissed for pick-ups or buses). Parent pick up from Clubs begins promptly at 3:30/State St and 3:40/Waterman. Students will not be able to walk or bike home alone. Parents/guardians will meet their child outside of his/her respective school building and will sign their child out on the clipboard provided by the club teacher. Students must be signed out by a parent/guardian. Late pick-ups are not tolerated and will jeopardize your ability to register for clubs in the future.
Will there be a nurse on site during Enrichment Clubs? No. Club teachers will have access to
basic first aid supplies only.
Will snack be provided during Enrichment Clubs? No. Anticipate a hungry child at pick up!
