Program Purpose and Goals

The purpose of the After-School Student Program (ASP), also known as "Homework Club", is to enhance and support the growth of 7th and 8th-grade students enrolled in OCSA through the provision of an affordable, safe, caring, after-school environment.  The program goals are to provide guidance and care, in a quiet environment, for students to complete homework, which acts as an extension of home, school, and community.

Daily Fee

  • $10.00 daily fee will be charged to a student’s OCard each day that a student attends the program using their student ID number.  For billing purposes, a $10.00 fee is charged for any period of attendance for the day.

  • If a student does not have funds on their OCard and must attend, their account will be debited and funds can be added to their account after attendance.
