WHAT IS MASP EXTRAS? My After School Program (MASP) is excited to offer a balance of afternoon enrichment, through MASP Extras, for children enrolled and attending Jackson, Mary Lin, Morningside, Smith, Springdale Park and Virginia-Highland Elementary. While children must be enrolled during the school day where the extracurricular program takes place, they do not have to be enrolled in  the on site after-care program to attend MASP Extras. Our format allows the students to try a variety of programs from semester to semester, hopefully leading them to find something that fills their cup!  A range of engaging extracurricular programs are available for students in grades 1-5. Some schools do offer limited programming options to Kindergarten students, however, extras are not offered to Pre-K students at any MASP site. (NOTE: Morningside After School Extras does not offer programming to the general population of Kindergarten students. This is at the request of the school.) Whether you are looking for the arts, athletics or STEM, MASP Extras strives to provide something for every child. By enrolling your child in one of our programs, your child will transition from the end of their school day into their extracurricular program. A sample of classes includes art, drama, martial arts, robotics, film production, tennis, soccer, dance, chess and more!


WHO PROVIDES and TEACHES PROGRAMMING? MASP Extras has curated a group of vendors able to provide a range of activities during the enrichment week. Many have been with us for years and return each year because the students love them! Safety is always our top priority. We ask each vendors providing enrichment to send the same instructors week to week for each course, allowing your child to feel comfortable in their afternoon environment. All instructors are required to comply with, and be “all clear” with, the same background check Atlanta Public Schools teachers complete. 


 HOW MANY SESSIONS OF EXTRAS ARE THERE? We have two semesters of Extracurricular Programs (Extras). The Fall session of Extras begins the first full week after Labor Day and the Winter-Spring session of Extras begins the first full week after the Martin Luther King holiday. EAch semester session lasts 10-12 weeks, based on how the APS calendar falls.  


MARK YOUR CALENDARS! Online registration for Fall semester opens the SECOND Saturday in August at 9:00 AM and registration opens online for Winter-Spring semester the SECOND Saturday in December at 9:00 AM. EACH SEMESTER, REGISTRATION FOR ALL EXTRAS SESSIONS WILL CLOSE THE WEDNESDAY BEFORE CLASES BEGIN at 5PM for all schools SO THAT WE CAN CONFIRM ROSTERS FOR THE CLASS PROVIDERS. We follow the APS calendar and observe all holidays and teacher workdays on the school calendar. 


HOW DOES THIS ALL WORK? MASP has worked with each school's Administration, teachers at the school, and the program providers to determine logistics and the best schedule for adding in extracurricular programs to the end of the school day. We do not begin extras programming the first day of school, or first day back in January after December break. MASP and the school Administration agree that allowing a few weeks to get acclimated to the regular school day before adding in extracurricular programs is best with regard to safety and logistics for everyone on the school sites. With that said, as our semesters do not cover the entirety of the school year, if parents are looking to fill those gaps on the days extracurricular programs do not meet, we encourage you to register your child as a drop in student with MASP on site after-care (or iKids at Mary Lin). This way, they are still on site those afternoons and their schedule is not disrupted.


RATES/COURSE FEES: Rates/Course Fees are by the semester.  


HOW LONG ARE CLASSES ON THE DAY THEY MEET? Actual class time, for most classes, is an hour.  Some may be an hour and 15 minutes so that we can stagger dismissal for a smoother end of programming. 

COMBO chess is 2 hours (plus that before class transition and attendance time), some other classes may be an hour and a half. times will be posted in the course preview documents and in the registration portal and parent schedule once registration has been completed. 

***NOTE:***Students are dismissed from the school day to the care of their program/course instructors at 2:15 for first hour programs. Children are dismissed to the area where instructors are by school day announcements for attendance to be taken by their instructor, parents of absent children should be called by our on site coordinator if we have not been notified in advance and in many cases. MASP Extras cannot transition to class meeting spaces until 2:30 at any school. Many programs use that 15 minutes of time to include in their transition after attendance, before class begins, a restroom break. 


HOW ARE STUDENTS DISMISSED AT END OF SCHOOL DAY AND EXTRAS?  Students in FIRST HOUR classes are dismissed from the school day to their extras class via school dismissal announcements. At the end of their extracurricular class day, students are dismissed back into the My After School Program, if enrolled, or you can pick-up your child via walker dismissal at our designated dismissal area to be announced at a time closer to program start time (SEE PARENT WELCOME LETTER to be posted at bottom of this webpage THE FRIDAY BEFORE CLASSES BEGIN). MASP asks that the instructors check ID of person picking up children the first few weeks until the instructors become familiar with all parent faces! These pick up persons must provide ID when picking up your child. SAFETY FIRST!

SECOND HOUR (rare- we have very few of these) students are to transition from a first hour extras class (if enrolled), from the on site after school program (if enrolled), or be brought back to the school 5 minutes before the start of class by a parent or caregiver. MASP and the attending school are NOT responsible for student care in the hour between school dismissal and second hour programs starting. If not in a first hour class or enrolled in after care, parents should arrange the child's schedule for that first hour accordingly. This is a MASP policy. Same end of program dismissal will apply for second hour classes. 


HOW WILL I GET "ALL THE DETAILS" AFTER REGISTERING? Once a registration is complete, the child schedule and details for each class can be found in the parent portal under the child account. Later, the Friday before classes begin, the Parent Welcome Letter will be emailed to parents and posted on our website homepage (for each school) for all registered Extras students. Make sure in your portal account that you have opted to receive emails. The Parent Welcome Letter will detail the logistics of the Extras day, how to notify school classroom teachers of your child’s afternoon schedule/dismissal change (parent responsibility) so that they transition from the school day to their class successfully, how to notify us of your child’s absence from their Extra on any given day, bussing (if there are multiple campuses) and more!  Keep in mind, MASP is not linked to the school’s computer system and we do not have access to parent contact information, pick up persons or restrictions nor any information allergy or important medical information.  Please make sure your child’s profile is complete and includes all important information.


CHANGE AND WITHDRAWAL FEES: Choose your child’s classes carefully. There is a $10 class change fee when changing classes after a registration has been completed. Additionally, there is a $50 withdrawal fee for all requested refunds and withdrawals after any registration has been completed. Notifications reminders of this are included in the Extras registration agreements and posted here for transparency. After the second week of the session class schedule has been completed (by 7 PM Friday of the second week of the semester), no additional registrations, refunds or class changes will be made by MASP. At that time, rosters are final and we will be invoiced by the class providers for the semester.


LATE PICKUP POLICY: Parents of students not registered in MASP after care that are not picked up from their extracurricular class 15 minutes past the end of class pick up time will automatically be charged to their account, and fee processed to card on file, the one time per school year drop in aftercare registration fee of $125 PLUS $30 each time the child is not picked up on time. Instructors often have other classes in other locations to teach class after MASP classes are over. Please be conscious of child pick up times. If there is an emergency and you are running late, please let the course instructor or the site director noted in the parent welcome letter know you are running late with a text or phone call.  


HOW TO UPDATE YOUR PARENT/EMERGENCY CONTACTS FOR YOUR CHILD ONCE REGISTRATION HAS BEEN COMPLETED: Keep in mind "Emergency Contacts" = Approved pick-up persons in our dismissal system.   

NOTE: If on a computer, the view will be easier to navigate and have a more horizontal view, however, if you are on your phone, this will all stack vertically.

  • When you login to the parent portal on www.myafterschoolprogram.com, on the dashboard, you will see each child’s name in a box.
  • On the child’s name box it says EDIT EMERGENCY CONTACTS
  • Click EDIT EMERGENCY CONTACTS in the box with your child's name (not parent name)
  • From there you can add persons as parents or emergency contacts. In this case, if you are adding Dad he will automatically be an authorized pick up person as the parent. BE SURE TO ADD THE PERSON YOU WANT TO HAVE PICKUP PERMISSIONS AS A PARENT OR EMERGENCY CONTACT ONLY so it will show in out dismissal app going forward. IF the person does not have a profile in our system, you will create one so they can be added to your CHILD's profile. 
  • Be sure to click SAVE or UPDATE at the bottom right of the page before closing the Emergency contacts page.
