The After School program is open to students who attend Barrett Elementary School in-person, and provides snack, dinner, homework help, social interaction, physical activity, and enrichment activities until 6pm Monday through Friday. Upon school dismissal, students come directly to the After School Program in the cafeteria of their school. The After School program coincides with the Steel Valley School District calendar. MUSA is a state-licensed Quality Campaign member and a STAR 4 facility.
A child’s parent or legal guardian must complete the application form. The application will close once capacity is reached. The first day of the 2023-2024 after-school program is Monday, August 28, 2023. Cost: FREE for families enrolled in Child Care Works subsidy (also called CCIS). MUSA will cover your weekly copay amount if average monthly attendance is at least 80%. Call 412-350-3577 and ask to speak to a Family Navigator to see if you qualify. Barrett students: use Provider Number 9111214162-3. Park Students: use Provider Number 9111214162-7. If you are ineligible for Child Care Works, per-child weekly tuition is based on 2022/2023 household income levels:
- <200% Federal Poverty Level (FPL): Free
- 200-300% FPL: $35 weekly tuition
- 300-400% FPL: $70 weekly tuition
- >400% or decline to provide income information: $140 weekly tuition
- Priority enrollment is given to students who will attend regularly, as the after school curriculum works best with consistency. If you only need after school care on certain days, we encourage you to still submit this application. We will be in touch regarding pro-rated tuition and a part-time schedule if space is available on your specific days.
- Because the FPL calculations account for multiple children, we do not offer additional sibling discounts at this time.
