How much does Afterschool cost?
**UPDATE: Afterschool for the remainder of the 2017-2018 school year, through June 12, will now be funded through a 21st Century Community Learning Center (21CCLC) grant and is free to all DCPS students.
For the 2017-2018 school year, the rate is $5 a day per child unless you receive a subsidy. It is based on the school calendar days. If there is no school or early dismissal, there is no afterschool.
Families can pay for afterschool online. The Family ID is the firstname.lastname.last4digitsofphonenumber of the person who registered the student. For example, jane.doe.1234.
Community based organizations provide clubs for a fee during afterschool. To enroll and pay, contact the organization directly.

Where is lost & found?
The lost and found is a table in the back of the multi-purpose room. Children misplace items often. Please label everything and ask children to place everything inside their backpack. Leave valuables at home.
Can i sign up for an afterschool club if i am not enrolled in afterschool?
Yes! Ludlow-Taylor is excited to provide access to fee-based clubs to students who are not enrolled in the Afterschool Program.
Please note that if your student is not enrolled in the Afterschool Program and is signed up for a club that has a start time later than 3:30 pm, the child must be picked up at 3:30 pm dismissal time and return at the club start time.
Why? The Afterschool Program is staffed and resourced (with snacks) for the maximum number of children currently enrolled and is unable to accommodate additional students. Ludlow-Taylor is striving to improve access to Afterschool clubs for all Ludlow-Taylor students and appreciates everyone's support and cooperation as the program grows to meet the need. Please contact Ms. Brenda Thomas with any questions or concerns at brenda.thomas@dc.gov or 202-805-2888.
