After School Cares

Welcome to Columbus' After School Cares!
End each day with trusted care by a highly qualified, trained staff member. Students will have a snack, be assisted with homework, have free play time outdoors (weather permitting), and structured enrichment activities.

Health Guidelines: Due to social distancing policies, we will limit After School Cares to 10 students per care giver. Students will have to wear masks unless outside or eating and drinking. Students will be registered on a first come first served basis. If you know of anyone interested in working as an after school cares caregiver, have them contact Ms. Oleksy via email: waoleksy@cps.edu

Payment Policy: Payments are due weekly on Friday by cash, check, or money order to Columbus Elementary School. It can be turned in to the ASC teacher or to the Columbus main office. Please request a receipt if you are paying cash. Written notice must be given 5 days prior to the child’s last day in after school care. Participants are responsible for the entire week if less than 5 days’ notice is given.
​
You must pay for the number of days you signed up for during registration, even if your child does not attend. You must give written notice 5 days in advance if you are going to reduce the number of days your child will be attending. Your tuition pays the salaries of the ASC employees.

If your child is picked up after 6:00 p.m., you will be charged $1.00 per minute that you are late. 
​
Registration Policy: Any medications, special needs, or medical information must be submitted in writing at the time of registration. In the event that ASC at Columbus determines that enrollment or continued participation in ASC is not appropriate, ASC reserves the right to discontinue services. In such a circumstance, any unused portion of service fees will be refunded. ASC reserves the right to cancel the enrollment of an individual for reasons not limited to the following: not observing rules of the ASC outlined in the Student Code of Conduct, physical or verbal abuse of staff or children, non-payment of fees.
