After School Enrichment

The Alta Heights Family Faculty Club (AHFFC) coordinates after school enrichment classes for the benefit of Alta Heights’ students. The enrichment programs are a fun way for children to interact with their schoolmates and allow them the opportunity to be exposed to a diverse group of subjects and activities. Creativity and self-expression are encouraged as students discover and develop new interests and talents. The instructors are talented community members and parents who are experienced in working with children.

Sign up and pay for classes ONLINE at 6crickets.com. Registration must be completed online. We are now paperless for the enrichment classes, but if you need help, please reach out to our enrichment coordinator, Kristin Lowe-Hobbs, for help (kristinmlowe@gmail.com).

Enrichment classes will be canceled if the minimum enrollment is not met. If space is not available for your student, or the class is canceled due to low enrollment, you will receive a full refund.

Scholarships for each class are available if assistance is needed, and scholarships are available to pay for an aide so your child can attend classes, if needed. Please contact the school office for more information, 707-253-3671 or FFC at altaheightsffc@gmail.com. Thank you!
