Important Update Regarding COVID-19
Dear After School Program & San Clemente Playschool Families:
The City of San Clemente has been closely monitoring the evolving Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and is actively participating in ongoing conversations and communications with the Orange County Health Care Agency (OCHCA) to properly inform and advise on best practices and response.
In lieu of the escalating situation surrounding COVID-19, we find ourselves in a rapidly changing environment. Based on the
decisions made by CUSD
on March 13
th
, we will be cancelling all before and after school programs from March 16-April 3, 2020. These courses include
Playschool Kids Club; GAP Truman Benedict; GAP Vista Del Mar; After Hours at Shorecliffs Middle School; After Hours at Bernice Ayer Middle School; After Hours at Vista Del Mar Middle School
.
Due to the cancellation of these programs, participants will receive a pro-rated credit for the classes scheduled from March 16-April 3, 2020. This credit can be applied to a future class registration or refunded by check by submitting a
refund request form
.
Our priority is to protect the welfare, safety, and well being of all participants, while also protecting the health and safety of our instructors and staff. The City supports the CDC and OCHCA recommendations to use every day preventative measures such as; washing hands frequently, use hand sanitizer, avoiding touching your face with dirty hands, cleaning and sanitizing surfaces, and staying home when you are sick.
Please know that these decisions do not come lightly and are made with the best interest of our patron’s health and safety in mind. We will continue to assess our operations daily and consult with OCHCA for recommendations and possible further changes. We will keep you informed of any necessary changes as information becomes available. We appreciate your support and understanding as we adapt to this fluid situation.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Recreation Division at (949) 429-8797.
Sincerely,
City of San Clemente
After School Program Staff
