Status of ASP Enrichment Classes
We have posted the Class Registration Status PDF file with the schedule of classes indicating the status of each of the classes. You will note 2 columns: Class Limit AND Status. Class Limit indicates the number of minimum and maximum number of students each class needs to hold the class. Status indicates the number of students who have enrolled and again, the maximum the class will allow. Those classes with a Status of “0″ indicates no registrations have been received. It is highly possible that if any of the classes listed do no reach their minimum by Friday, the class will be cancelled. Therefore, if you wish for your class to form, spread the word to other families!

Teachers who offer these classes are ROE faculty, ROE parents, or professionals in the related field.
