After School Enrichment
Allen Creek PTSA's After School Enrichment Program (ASEP) has fully transitioned to online registration. Registrations are on a first-come, first-served basis. Once the program is full, the online system will be closed. If a waitlist form is available for that program, then you may request that your child be placed on a waitlist. The program coordinator will follow-up with an e-mail notice if a spot becomes available.
​
Please observe the registration deadline as we need to meet the minimum registration numbers for the after-school clubs to proceed, confirm program instructors in advance, and order materials. We also create and share spreadsheets with participants' information with the front office, teachers, and club chairs; and many chairs set up email groups for their communications. Making updates is no small feat with all these players! No late registration requests will be considered on the program’s start day. We sincerely appreciate your cooperation in registering before the deadline.
The mission of Pittsford PTSA's After School Enrichment Program (ASEP) is to provide safe and supervised after-school educational, enriching and/or recreational programs for school-age children in grades K-5. Building PTSAs choose programs based on their individual demographics, interest level, and parent commitment. The building principal must approve all programs. Each after-school club has its own coordinator. Visit the Leadership page to contact the appropriate program chair with questions.

Please note: Programs on this page are for Allen Creek Elementary students only.
