CHASE Activity Days are held twice a month from September through May with a Field Day to wrap up the school year. Activity Day begins at 8:45 am and ends at 12:30 pm.  Your first stop is the Welcome Table where you and your children will pick up your name tags.  Infants through Preschool age children will go directly to their classrooms.  All age groups from 5 years and up will meet in the gym for our Opening Activities which begin promptly at 9 am and consist of pledges, devotion, and prayer.  From there, children grouped by age rotate through 4 classes lasting 45 min. each.  We dismiss classes at 12:30.   Occasionally, families stay for an optional Lunch Period from 12:30-1:30 pm.

Classes offered vary, depending on the age of the child and the abilities of our volunteers.  Past year class offerings included:

Early Elementary (5 & 6 yr olds): Art, Music, Show & Tell, Gym & Creative Movement

Elementary Education (7-11 yrs): Art, Spanish, Health & Science, Public Speaking, Cooking, Gym.

Tween & Teen Track (12-18 yrs): Life Skills, Art, Gym, Cooking, Public Speaking, Science.

CHASE typically meets twice a month from Sept. – May at a church in Easton, Pa.  We also hold a Field Day in May at a local park.  In addition, we offer optional field trips and/or service projects typically once a month.

Consider attending a CHASE Open House in March if you are thinking about joining CHASE for the next school year. Also, registration information for the next school year will be posted on our website in April.  You may email us at [email protected] for additional registration information.

Registration Fees cover the cost for the entire family to participate in each Activity Day.

Registration Fees for new and returning CHASE members will be announced in April for the following school year. Registration is based upon a first come, first served basis as space is limited.

Additional costs may include the price of field trips, participation in which is optional.  There may also be a minimal cost ($20-$30) for books and/or supplies.

Since CHASE is a Parent-Run Co-Op, a parent from each family is needed to volunteer in some capacity during each Activity Day.  Our moms (and dads) are our teachers and volunteers.  We have many areas in which you can choose to volunteer: infant room, toddler room, preschool room assistant, lead teacher for one of our classes, assistant teacher for one of our classes or age group chaperone.  The position you sign up for at the beginning of the year, is the position you will remain in for the duration of the year.  Grandparents or other CHASE Moms may serve occasionally as subs, but routine drop offs are not allowed.

Once you have registered, your child/ren will be placed in an age appropriate group.  Their age group is determined by their age as of Sept.1st.  Groups are as follows: Infant/Toddler; Preschool;  Early Elementary;  Middle Elementary;  Upper Elementary;  Tween; and Teen.  Your child/ren will participate in the classes planned for their specific age group.

We offer infant & toddler care and a preschool class for the younger siblings of children registered in our program.  These are all included in the Registration Fee and are staffed by parent volunteers.
