BEFORE & AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS

Camp Fire Columbia’s Before & After School programs are open for registration!

Registration for the 2023/24 school year will look a bit different than in years past.

 Camp Fire has designed a registration process that addresses stress for families and increases a long-term community of belonging and keeping people in program until they are ready to exit on their own. Program staff are now year-round; therefore, teams are built and continue to grow. We will increase our capacities early to be able to add more students to program before the school year begins.

 Currently registered families:

If you are currently enrolled in Camp Fire Before and After School Program and have not approved your rollover, please contact your district’s registrar team to do so.

West Linn/Wilsonville programs:  [email protected] 

Approval for rollovers will be accepted through Wednesday, May 5, 2023. See below for more information about registration rollover.

Currently wait listed families:

If you are currently on Camp Fire Before and After School Program wait list, you will keep your spot on the waitlist until you are offered a spot in program. Offers will be sent out throughout the summer in hopes that you can start in program at the beginning of the school year. You will not be required to pay another registration fee.

New families/not registered or wait listed:

Registration will open on Wednesday, May 10, 2023 at 12:30 pm. Families who complete registration by Wednesday, May 31^st at 11:59 pm will be added to our lottery and not directly into program. Again, registration for this lottery will close at 11:59 pm on Friday, May 31^st. Camp Fire will hold a lottery placement for each location and begin making offers to families once we are able to organize through all of the incoming new registrations. All registrations coming in after July 31st will be added chronologically at the bottom of the waiting list and contacted as there is space available.

A $35 annual registration fee is due at the time of registration and siblings will be placed in program or wait on the waiting list together. When registering your child for the lottery, there will be a question that asks if they qualify for lottery prioritization. Children who meet one or more of the following criteria will be prioritized for placement in their program: BIPOC children or children whose primary family are BIPOC, children being raised in single guardian households, children in the foster care system, children with documented developmental needs, and children who are in an English language learner program. Prioritization will not guarantee placement in program. 

 Please visit our Before and After School homepage for links to Fall 2023 registration which will begin Wednesday, May 10, 2023 at 12:30 PM PST.
