After-school programs

The Ortega PTO partners with a rotating lineup of vendors to offer hands-on, inspiring enrichment classes right on campus. You may hear this called ASEP — it stands for the After-School Enrichment Program, and it means these classes. Programs may include art, coding, sports, STEM, and more — check Homeroom each session for the full lineup.

Fall 2026 classes

Days, times and prices are set by each vendor and listed on Homeroom — open a class to see the full description and to register.

Before you register

1. 1After registering, all communication about your child’s class is handled directly by the provider. The PTO does not coordinate class-specific questions.
2. 2Notify your child’s teacher and aftercare program about their enrichment enrollment. Families are responsible for planning transitions between programs.
3. 3Kindergarten students are met at their classroom and walked to enrichment. TK students enrolled in a Wednesday class are also walked to their class, then to aftercare (Happy Hall or Boys & Girls Club) afterward.
4. 4TK students in a non-Wednesday class starting at 1:35 PM: families are responsible for their child between the 12:30 PM TK dismissal and 1:35 PM class start.
5. 5Wednesday classes with both TK and Kindergarten students begin with a 15–20 minute supervised lunch period for students to eat food they bring from home.
6. 6Non-Wednesday classes for Grades 1–5 begin at 2:35 PM with a supervised snack time for 1st–3rd graders. Instruction begins at 2:55 PM when 4th–5th grade students arrive.
7. 7Providers cannot transport students to offsite aftercare programs (including Boys & Girls Club) for Grades 1–5.
