Hello P.S. 20 families!
Can you believe how quickly the summer is flying by? We hate to see summer end, but are excited about our plans for this Fall semester. We can’t wait to welcome back old students and are thrilled to greet new P.S. 20 families. Mosaic is P.S. 20’s PTA-run after-school program serving the PS. 20 community. Get the latest information on updates via Mosaic website, or email mosaic@ps20.org with any questions.
The Mosaic afterschool program will be offered to grades Pre-K - 5th. Students in grade PK-5th will begin on Monday Sept. 9th. The program will run from 2:40 PM - 6 PM on school days, following the DOE calendar. (Although we do not operate at the school on DOE holidays, there are certain holidays for which we offer an offsite camp.) For now, here is some information regarding fall 2024 registration:
Registration launch date is Thursday, August 29th, at noon. Make sure to create a user profile on Sawyer, our registration platform, if you haven't done so already. (If you have outstanding credit from Spring 2024, it should be in your account as a gift balance.)
Please visit the Mosaic website using the link below to get an idea what our fall schedule looks like (subject to change): https://mosaic.ps20.org/
Please see our daily routine:
- 2:40–4pm – Pick up/Snack/ Homework assistance
- 4–5pm – Enrichment activities
- 5–6pm – Free play & Dismissal
- The scholarship application for Fall 2024 school semester is now available (please feel free to reach out to Mosaic if you have any questions/concerns). Applications are due for the 1st round of consideration by August 23rd and applications will be accepted on a rolling basis. If you are notified that you qualify for a scholarship, you will have one week to submit a full application. Mosaic cannot guarantee spots if you do not apply within this timeframe. Scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, if a spot is available, you will receive an award letter.
- For childcare/walk home service, please email jestina.eubanks@ps20.org to make arrangements with your favorite Program Assistant.
Pricing: Mosaic will continue to use the new tiered tuition system implemented Fall 2021! We have instituted this system in an effort to better serve the entire PS 20 community, while also continuing to raise much-needed funds for the school. Tiered pricing ranges from $30/day to $0/day. We will continue to have discounts for families who sign up for multiple days.
Safety: Mosaic programs will follow current NYC Department of Education and NYS Department of Health guidelines on public health safety protocols.
