                             What are ACE Programs?
ACE (After Class Enrichment) Programs give Grace students the opportunity to
explore new and exciting activities after school. With different offerings each
term, our students can experience a range of classes from dance to soccer to
cooking! Classes are led by members of Grace’s own staff as well as a number of
qualified instructors from the DC Metro Area. Come join the fun!

                                 Who can register?
All Grace students can sign up for ACE programs. Classes are open to contracted
aftercare students and also to students who do not attend aftercare. Students can
sign up for more than one class! Please be mindful that some classes may indicate
a specific age range. Grace will provide a healthy snack in conjunction with
aftercare. The students will be dismissed from aftercare to their ACE course. After
ACE classes students will return to aftercare or be dismissed to parents.

                                 How do I register?

All students may sign up for ACE Programs by filling in the attached sheet and
returning it to Shalonda Newman, Director of Aftercare, by ​Friday, February 1st.
