Detailed Programs Descriptions
AES After School
The After School Program is open every school day offering a wide range of exciting expanded learning activities. From our drum band, “The Banditz” to 3-D printing with Minecraft, we have clubs that will engage the participants and build on their interest. For those students needing help with homework we have a daily study hall available to assist in academics. In addition, we offer a service club, “K-Kids” sponsored by Arcata Kiwanis. Each day, we offer a large “Super Snack” right after school and a light snack at 5:00 pm. We also offer transportation home each day at 4:50. See our bus schedule for drop off points and times.
The program is funded by a state grant. If you qualify for free/reduced lunch the program is completely free. For those that do not qualify, the program fee is $70 per month for a entire family. Due to the nature of our funding, the participants are strongly encouraged to attend every day.

The program strives to be student directed with opportunities to explore interest, build leadership skills, and grow as a young teenager.

Vacation/Summer Camps
We off a wide range of activities that encourage campers to pursue new interest, cultivate friendships, and develop strengths. Campers thrive as they develop skills, enjoy weekly field trips, weekly swimming, and pursue choice-based arts, adventure and athletic activities.
The Program is open weekdays from 7:30-5:45 during summer vacation. Campers are accepted from all area schools. We offer the most flexible scheduling camp options in the county! We understand that families have crazy schedules, particularly in the summer months! We work closely with individual families to create schedules that work for you.
