Afterschool Programming Philosophy

The purpose of the Department of Afterschool Programming is to facilitate opportunities for quality afterschool programs which meet the fundamental needs common to all students during afterschool hours. It is important that students have access to the best possible opportunities to develop into healthy, well-adjusted and responsible adults. 

Afterschool Hours

Afterschool is a quality enrichment program, located in a safe setting, offering scheduled academic and special activities and cannot accommodate occasional drop-in service. Students must be enrolled and tuition must be paid in accordance to the fee payment schedule for any of the programs below:

VPK Wraparound, Monday - Friday (2:00pm-4:00pm)
Full-time program, Monday - Friday (2:00pm to 6:00pm)
Part-time program, Monday - Friday (2:00pm to 4:00pm)

Coral Reef Afterschool offers a high-quality program that meets the fundamental needs of students during out-of-school time. Our programs provide a safe, secure environment in which children can be involved in wholesome, enriching activities that deliver meaningful out-of-school-time experiences.

For the upcoming 2024-2025 school year, registration for District after-school programs for incoming kindergarten students and students in grades K-5 begins on Wednesday, April 17, 2024, at 7 p.m.

Parents can register for an after-school program by visiting https://palmbeachcountyschools.reg.eleyo.com/ to submit an after-school program registration contract request. Enrollment can be requested for all grade levels.

Once a contract request has been submitted, it will be reviewed by the after-school director (Coach Josh). Submitting a contract request does not guarantee enrollment into a program. Acceptance into an after-school program is determined by the number of slots available, on a first-come, first-served basis. Upon approval of your contract request, you will be notified via email. Sites will notify any parent who is on the waitlist by Friday, May 10, 2024.

There is a $35 registration fee for elementary after-school programs. Parents will be required to submit the registration fee when they are notified that their Eleyo enrollment contract request has been accepted. Payment can be made online through Eleyo, or in person at the school site by check or money order. Any parent whose child is not currently enrolled in a District-operated program should contact the school site’s after-school director for information on how to create an Eleyo account. After-school registration for students entering kindergarten will take place during the regular registration period beginning on April 17, 2024.

School District employees with children enrolled in K-5 after-school programs are eligible for a 25% tuition discount. To receive the discount, employees must submit Form PBSD 2476 Employee Verification for Afterschool Programs. Employees can submit the form, starting on July 1, 2024. The deadline for submission is August 31, 2024, for the discount to begin on September 1, 2024.

Forms received after August 31, 2024, will be processed as of the date submitted by the employee, with the discount beginning the following month. Please note that employees must fill out a new form for EACH school year for EACH child enrolled in an after-school program. Discounts do NOT roll over from year to year.

For any questions about after-school programs, contact or email Coach Josh (Afterschool Site Director) at josue.natalus@palmbeachschools.org - 561-804-3730.
