Update on WELL Enrollment

WELL has a few slots open for the 2025-26 School Year

Thank you for your interest in our WELL program. We are very nearly full for the 2025-26 school year. There are a limited number of slots still available in some of our locations. However, whether we have a slot at your desired location open now, we encourage families to go ahead and apply, as slots can still open up throughout the school year and they will be filled from the waitlist on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Registration Now Open for the WELL Before and After School Care Program (2025-2026 School Year)

We are excited to announce that registration for the WELL Before and After School Care Program for the 2025-2026 school year is now open! The WELL program offers a variety of convenient care options for your child, including:

  • Before and After School Care for students in TK - 2nd Grade at MWE

  • Before and After School Care for students in TK - 2nd Grade at CCLA

  • Before and After School Care for students in 3rd - 5th Grade at Brooks

  • Before School Care ONLY for students in 3rd - 6th Grade at CCLA (After school care done by Boys & Girls Club)

  • WELL After School Care Plus Program, offering childcare on additional non-school days throughout the year (e.g., teacher development days, unused weather emergency days, and breaks such as Thanksgiving, Winter, and Spring)

  • All applications must be submitted online via the Rediker Enrollment Software, our new registration platform. Please note that families are required to re-register their children every year even if they are current WELL students, as there is no automatic re-enrollment.

    Register Via Rediker

  • Priority Registration is available to the following groups for the 2025-2026 school year:

    • Students who qualify for the Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P)

    • Current WELL students with a $0 balance at the time of registration

    • Siblings of currently enrolled students

    • Children of WUSD staff members

    If your child qualifies for Priority Registration, you are guaranteed a spot in the program if you submit your registration by May 30, 2025. After May 30th, we will continue accepting registrations, but they will be processed in the order they are received. Please note: Parents with an overdue balance at the end of the 2024-2025 school year may have their registration canceled, and their spot may be offered to a family on the waiting list.

  • You will be notified whether your child has secured a spot by the last week of June 2025. Those who do not receive a space will be placed on a waiting list and contacted when a spot becomes available.

Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P)

California is funding free or reduced before and after school care for qualifying students through the Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P). Students who are eligible for this free or reduced care include those who are officially registered with WUSD as one of the following:

  • Free or Reduced Lunch recipients

  • English Learners

  • Foster or Homeless Youth

If you believe your child qualifies for ELO-P via Free or Reduced Lunch, you must reapply for the ELOP Fee Waiver for the 2025-2026 school year. All parents will receive the application by July 01, 2025, and it must be submitted by July 15, 2025.

If your student qualifies for ELO-P or another program covering the cost of care and you receive an invoice, please don’t hesitate to contact us so we can assist in resolving any discrepancies.

If you plan to apply for financial aid with such agencies as Sonoma 4Cs, please make sure to present your certificates by August 08, 2025.

We are thrilled to offer these services to our community and look forward to supporting your children in a fun and enriching environment!
