Extra-Curricular Activity Program (ECAP)--Grades K-8

OLGC School offers 1-hour, 2-hour, and 3-hour ECAP programs for the 2025-2026 school year for students in Kindergarten through 8th Grade after the school day.  You must select the number of hours you need each day, and the number of days per week that you need the service. You may design your own program. (For example, you could select 1 hour on Monday and Thursday, and 3 hours on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday for a total of 11 hours per week). 

In order for us to adequately staff the program, you will be committed to whatever schedule you design for the trimester.  Changing time slots and/or days during the trimester is not permitted. When you enroll for the next trimester, you may make changes at that time. Should an emergency occur, please contact the ECAP director to see if we may be able to accept your child for that particular occurrence.
