Daily Programs
ExCEL (Before & After School)
ExCEL has opened their enrollment for the 2026-27 school year for their before and after school programs. Fees for ExCEL vary based on family income. See the website for details. Please complete the MFIF application to apply for reduced/free ExCEL and other benefits for families that qualify.
We recommend families put siblings applying for the same program on the same registration so that their fees are accurately calculated. From our experience Chrome is the best browser to use to access Salesforce as other browsers such as Safari are known to cause issues.
Please remember to hit SUBMIT at the end of the application when prompted to. If the application says Incomplete that means it is incomplete and has not yet been submitted.
The mission of Expanded Collaboratives for Excellence in Learning (ExCEL) is to create and sustain “safe havens” at public schools where students and community members can access expanded learning opportunities and integrated education, health, social service, and cultural programs in the out-of-school hours. The BACR mission is to promote healthy development of individuals, families and communities. BACR in partnership with ExCEL and DCYF is happy to announce that we are offering a program for incoming K–5th grade students. Our program offers a wide variety of activities including Academic Support, STEM, Art, Recreation, Soccer, Cooking, Dance and much more.

Morning Art + Spanish Program
Manos is a local Spanish and Art studio for kids in the Outer Sunset, San Francisco. They strive to provide real-life, inquiry-based, art explorations in nature while learning Spanish. They have adopted a program for Lakeshore to bring that same ethos to build a morning Spanish program. They strive to create a space where children can learn (Spanish) through experiences while fostering their curiosity and independence.
Manos’ Spanish program features a heavy emphasis on oral comprehension for younger students – classes are conducted primarily in Spanish using songs, visuals, art, and skits to help students to listen and watch for sounds and language structures. Older students will learn grammar and focus on vocabulary as they build practical conversational skills. As they progress, students will learn sentences in the past, present, and future tenses. The program can be adapted to meet the needs of individual students and can provide a variety of in-class experiences for different age levels.
Manos runs Monday – Friday from 8/24/26 to 5/28/27; 8-9:10am. If you have further questions please contact Edurne Diaz (edurnediaz@gmail.com | 415-595-5130) or visit their website.

After School Weekly Programs

We will post registration information for each new session through out the year on ParentSquare (Schoolwide Bulletin Board) and our weekly newsletter (Paw Print Press) as soon as we heard from our providers. This page may not be up to date for sessions that started after the beginning of the school year, but day and time will remain the same, fees can change slightly depending how many classes were offered in the session.
