LEAP - Lions Extended After-school Program

LEAP Information

Join us for LEAP, Wesley's unique, fun and flexible after-school care program! Our staff is comprised of a small group of caring Wesley adults whom your child may recognize from the classroom, the turf field, the picnic tables, and everywhere in between! LEAP is available almost every day after school from dismissal until 6:00pm.

After taking a break and having an after-school snack, students have 30 minutes of study hall during which they can work on their homework with the assistance of program staff, if needed. Students then participate in a variety of structured activities and interest-based clubs designed to further their academic, social, and emotional development. Parents can sign their children up for LEAP for the entire year, by trimester, or on a daily drop-in basis as needed. You are free to pick up your child any time before 6:00pm; there is no minimum amount of time that they must remain in LEAP.

If you arrive after your allotted carpool timeframe, your child will automatically be signed into LEAP. After that, you have a 15-minute grace period (Kindergarten grace period ends at 3:15pm, 1st-4th grade grace period ends at 3:30pm, and 5th-8th grade grace period ends at 3:45pm) before you will be billed for a drop-in day of LEAP.

Children in LEAP create friendships with students from other grades that they carry with them throughout their Wesley careers! Additionally, LEAP kids learn valuable life lessons about sharing, personal responsibility, and loving communication.

The safety of our children is of the utmost importance. For that reason, please take note of the following safety rules and procedures:

• Every student must sign in and out with the LEAP staff. We must know which students are on campus after school and their locations at all times.
• Any adult picking up your child/children must bring a photo I.D. to campus. If someone other than a person listed on your child's release form is picking them up, you must email pickup@wesleyschool.org and/or call the main office to give verbal permission.
• Security is on premises until 6:00pm. A late fee will be charged if your child is picked up after 6:00pm.
• On those rare rainy or cold days, LEAP will take place indoors.
