Additional Background
The 5-year grant funding the ACE Afterschool Program will expire in July. The District is in the process of applying for Cycle 10 of the grant to fund an additional five years. Because awarding of the grant will not be announced until sometime in July, the District is developing two plans: one assumes BCISD receives the ACE grant and the other assumes BCISD sustains an afterschool program for the 2018-2019 school year with local funding.
If the District is awarded the ACE grant, then parents can expect the same high quality ACE Afterschool Program serving more than 800 students a day. If the District is not awarded the ACE grant, then the District is prepared to offer a new, locally funded afterschool program.
At the April 16 Board Meeting, the BCISD Board of Trustees allocated funds to underwrite a majority of the costs of a non-grant funded afterschool program. This locally funded afterschool program would be offered at all BCISD elementary campuses Monday-Thursday from 3:15-6:15 p.m. The afterschool program will have a new name, but will continue to offer homework help, tutorials and fun, enrichment activities in a safe environment. The three biggest changes with the locally funded afterschool program are:
The enrollment will be limited to 105 students at each elementary campus.
Transportation will not be provided.
A very affordable fee of $20 per month will be required.

In order to plan for the 2018-2019 school year, the District will be hosting an afterschool program registration event on May 16. Registering in May will secure a spot in the afterschool program for the 2018-2019 school year.
