About Us:

The purpose of the AAES Afterschool Enrichment Program (AEP) is to provide students with a supportive environment that fosters academic, social, and emotional growth. We hope this program will enable our students to explore new interests, build meaningful friendships, and develop into confident, compassionate members of the August Ahrens Elementary community.
