  • Support student academic achievement in literacy, math proficiency, and EL redesignation.
  • Provide exposure to a wide variety of experiences.
  • Help children develop their unique talents and abilities.
  • Build character and leadership skills.
  • Provide a safe environment.
  • Increase motivation and connection to school.

Purpose

The FUSD After School Expansion provides structured tutorial and enrichment programs for school-age children. Programs are staffed with qualified after school personnel.

The FUSD After School Program operates SCHOOL DAYS ONLY. The program operates on a daily basis to coincide with the regular school calendar and operates from the end of the school day until 6:00 p.m. Students participating in the FUSD After School Program are required to participate in all the components of the program.

The program components include:

  • Healthy Snack

Enrollment

Families do not need to apply into the After School Expansion. All students from each of the 29 school sites, from transitional kindergarten/kindergarten through sixth/eighth grade, will automatically be entered into the lottery.  

Fresno Unified will implement a randomized computer lottery system for enrollment in the district’s after school programs. This process will provide every student an equal opportunity for enrollment. 

Parents of students who are accepted into the program will be notified via School Messenger phone calls in August, and parents will be required to attend a mandatory orientation the first week when school is in session.  

Students who are not selected during the lottery process will be placed on a waiting list and be notified for enrollment as space becomes available.
