Winter ’24 Enrichment Registration Opens Jan. 1 to Jan. 16

Update:

Enrollment in Winter Enrichment has closed and all waitlists have been dissolved. No students were moved from waitlists into classes. Please note if you received an email stating “You have been removed from the waitlist” it was generated as a result of dissolving the lists, not enrollment. Sorry for any confusion this caused and please check 6crickets to confirm your student’s schedule if you have questions.

Classes through 6cricket begin next week (1/29) and Orlov chess begins this week (1/22 & 1/26). Thank you to all that have signed up to participate and volunteer. Please visit the Signup Genius link if you have availability to volunteer on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. We still need one more volunteer each of those days to successfully run our programs. We greatly appreciate your help and look forward to a fun Winter session.

Mark your calendars!

6crickets registration for the Cascadia PTA Winter ’24 After School Enrichment session will begin on Mon., Jan. 1 at 9am and close on Tuesday, Jan. 16 at 11:59pm so enrichment volunteers can have enough time to finalize student rosters. Classes will begin the week of Monday, Jan. 29 and conclude by Friday, Apr. 5 before Spring Break starts.

Orlov Chess will be offering two winter chess classes (one on Monday and one on Friday) starting a week earlier than the rest of the program on Mon., Jan. 22. Please see the vendor’s website for registration information as Orlov uses a different registration process than 6crickets. https://chessplayer.com/

Please note that class transfers and late registrations will not be accommodated for the Winter session. Check with vendors directly for their withdrawal and refund policies.

Similar to the Fall ’23 session, two After School Club Coordinator volunteers are needed onsite daily to manage the after school program Monday through Friday. One volunteer stays for the first 30 minutes of the session to manage student headcount, call parents of no-show students and hold school buses if needed. The other volunteer stays for the entire session and oversees the student check in and check out process. Volunteers are also responsible for calling parents for student pick up if a class is canceled suddenly. Alternate volunteers are needed to help cover the main volunteers’ shifts if they are unavailable. If volunteers do not step up to manage the Winter enrichment classes, the enrichment program will be canceled.

All volunteers must have SPS approval prior to volunteering, apply here asap as your application takes several weeks to process: https://www.seattleschools.org/departments/volunteer/. Prior to your first shift, confirm your volunteer eligibility status with the Cascadia front office.
