The Daily After School Enrichment Program (DASEP) is an independent, 501(c)(3) non-profit program that provides learning-based afternoon activities to Florida Ruffin Ridley Elementary School students in grades K-8. The program typically runs from from October to June and is divided into two or more sessions. Registration periods take place shortly before the start of each session, and families must be registered in the PTO Directory to receive DASEP updates and registration information (IMPORTANT: to verify or list your family's information in the PTO Directory, please send an email to directory@ruffinridleypto.org). 

Over the 35 years since the program’s inception, DASEP has become the district’s largest after school program, serving over 350 students with 30-40 class and activity choices per session. Families may choose from a wide range of classes offered five days a week during the two hours following the regular school day and in the following broad categories: athletics, creative movement, and fitness; visual and performing arts; artisan, culinary and creative crafts; and STEM. You may click on the button here to be directed to the DASEP website, or you may log on directly to www.dasep-frr.org. For further information or questions, please contact DASEP Director Lauren Bernard by phone at 617-894-2827 or by email at director@dasep-frr.org.
