About our program
Options for Learning's free After-school TK/K program supplements the school district's TK/K program by offering extended learning hours, homework assistance, and a nutritious snack. Our program begins when the school's TK/K students are released from class. To qualify for Options for Learning's After-school TK/K program, a child must be enrolled in the school district's TK or kindergarten program.
Options for Learning's After-school TK/K will be offered at various locations based on enrollment. Programs are currently being offered or developed in the following school districts: East Whittier City School District, San Gabriel Unified School District, South Whittier School District, and Valle Lindo School District.
Our highly qualified teachers build and support school readiness for students. We welcome children with disabilities in all our programs provided the children can be safely and successfully served in the program.
