Because we offer so many opportunities for students to engage in hands-on activities, you may be wondering which one is best for you and your child. We offer two different types of programs: ELO-Platinum and ELO-P Academies. On this page, we will go over the differences in programs in hopes of making the decision-making process a smooth one. 

ELO-Platinum is an ASES (After-School Education and Safety) Program and provides funding focusing on homework/literacy support, enrichment, physical activity, and safety. The ASES program is facilitated by Think Together daily from 2:40pm - 6:00pm and from 12:35pm - 6:00pm on minimum days.

ELO-P academies (Expanded Learning Opportunities Program) are funded with a focus on before school, afterschool, and summer enrichment programs by means of partnering with community organizations and school day staff (teachers, tutors, aides, etc.). The goal of ELO-Programs is to prioritize on the student's academic, social, emotional, and physical needs. Program schedules vary from once to twice a week for a maximum of two hours.

Some of the community organizations we partner with are the following:

• POW Athletics

• LIFT Enrichment

• Riverside Art Museum

• Lulu's Boite de Bijoux

No matter which program you choose for your child, we are certain they will be provided with a great experience and the opportunity to continue their path to become lifelong learners. Please select your program of interest on the subtabs of this page. Before signing your student up for a specific activity, please ensure you have filled out the following interest form: 2025-2026 ELO-P Interest Registration - AfterSchool HQ.
