WELCOME
Dear Families,
This program is by invitation from the San Marcos Unified School District, as all tuition and fees are paid for by the district. To express interest please fill out the interest survey form for 25/26 school year here. You may also inquire during school hours with front admin or onsite with a Champions representative to pick up an application. Eligibility is determined after a student is enrolled with the school and the District for the current year. For further information, please contact Anileydi (Ani) Diaz-Chavez 760-290-2597 or anileydi.diaz-chavez@smusd.org.

Kids get a taste of math, science, sports and more during this weeklong program. During Spring Break at Champions, we get kids excited about summer with a sneak preview of all the excitement planned during our 12-week Summer Break. Parents love the convenience of having Spring Break programming at their regular Champions site, right inside their school.

The Champions Winter Break program brings learning and fun together—and the best part? We help children build their potential by encouraging them to choose their own learning activities, work in groups, and stay active. This year, we will shine a spotlight on science, reptiles, or stage production, depending on the site. Families can come one day or every day—whatever works for them!

How soon can my child start Champions?
Your child can attend our program as early as 48 hours after you complete the online enrollment process.
When is tuition due?
You’ll receive your weekly invoice every Thursday, and AutoPay processes on Monday for the week ahead. AutoPay will also process additional charges, such as drop-in days or fees.
What if I want to change my child’s care schedule?
You can make changes up until Wednesday before the upcoming week. After that, changes depend on available space and will include a drop-in fee. You can set up a custom schedule online for specific dates. Just remember to re-enter your regular schedule afterward so your child keeps their spot. See our How to Enroll page for step-by-step guides. If you do not need care for an entire week, please contact our Family Support team for assistance at ChampionsHelp@KC-Education.com or 800-246-2154.
