About Ann Arbor Public Schools Community Education and Recreation

Ann Arbor Public Schools Community Education and Recreation, commonly known as Rec & Ed, is a department of Ann Arbor Public Schools that provides lifelong learning, enrichment, recreation, and childcare programs for the broader Ann Arbor community. From youth and adult sports leagues to arts, music, fitness, language, and special interest classes, they offer a wide range of activities, including before‑ and after‑school care at many AAPS elementary schools. Their main office is located at 1515 S Seventh St, Ann Arbor, Michigan, which matches the address shown in the descriptor.

Charges from this merchant typically appear when someone registers for a class, camp, sports league, childcare program, or facility rental through Rec & Ed’s registration system, or pays related fees such as materials, uniforms, or tournament costs. These payments are often processed online via their registration portal or over the phone and may be labeled with variations like “AAPS Rec & Ed,” “AAPS Rec an,” or “Community Education & Recreation,” sometimes preceded by bank or POS wording such as “POS Withdrawal.” Single transactions usually correspond to one program enrollment or a set of registrations completed in a single checkout session, while seasonal sports or childcare may result in larger or recurring charges. ([reced.a2schools.org](https://reced.a2schools.org/register?utm_source=openai))

If you have questions about a charge, the best approach is to log in to your Rec & Ed online account and review your current and past registrations, receipts, and payments. You can also contact the Rec & Ed office directly at their listed phone number (734‑994‑2300) or via the contact information on their website for billing questions, refunds, or schedule changes. Have the date and amount of the charge, as well as the name of the enrolled participant, ready when you call or email. In families, another household member may have registered a child or themselves for a class or camp, so checking with other adults in the household is often helpful before disputing the transaction with your bank.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from “AAPS Rec an” or “AAPS Rec & Ed” on my card statement?

This charge is likely from Ann Arbor Public Schools Community Education and Recreation (Rec & Ed) for a class, camp, sports league, childcare program, or facility rental that you or a family member registered for through their system. Review your recent registrations or receipts in your Rec & Ed online account or email to confirm.

What are the most common amounts I might be charged by Rec & Ed?

Common Rec & Ed charges include class and camp fees (often ranging from tens to a few hundred dollars), seasonal youth sports league fees, and monthly or session-based before/after care payments. The exact amount depends on the program type, length, and whether multiple participants or activities were registered in one transaction.

How can I view or print a receipt for my Rec & Ed payment?

Log in to your Rec & Ed online registration account via the link on reced.a2schools.org, then go to your account history or receipts section. There you can view details of each registration and print or download receipts for your records or reimbursement purposes. ([reced.a2schools.org](https://reced.a2schools.org/register?utm_source=openai))

How do I cancel a class, camp, or sports registration with Rec & Ed?

Cancellation policies vary by program. Generally, you must contact the Rec & Ed office by phone or email before the program starts (or by a specified deadline) to request a cancellation or transfer. Check the specific program’s refund and cancellation terms on the Rec & Ed website or in the catalog, then call 734‑994‑2300 for assistance with your enrollment. ([reced.a2schools.org](https://reced.a2schools.org/register?utm_source=openai))

How can I request a refund or credit for a Rec & Ed charge?

Refunds and credits are handled according to Rec & Ed’s program-specific policies. If a class is canceled by Rec & Ed, participants are typically offered a refund or credit. If you wish to withdraw, contact the Rec & Ed office with your registration details to see if you qualify for a partial refund or account credit based on the timing and type of program. ([reced.a2schools.org](https://reced.a2schools.org/register?utm_source=openai))

Does Rec & Ed place small authorization holds or multiple pending charges on my card?

In most cases, Rec & Ed processes a single charge at the time of registration, but your bank may show it initially as a pending transaction. If you see small or duplicate pending amounts, they may be temporary authorizations by your card issuer that should drop off in a few days. If multiple posted charges appear for the same registration, contact Rec & Ed and your bank promptly to investigate.

How do I contact Rec & Ed about a billing or registration question?

You can reach Rec & Ed by calling their main office at 734‑994‑2300 during business hours or by using the contact information provided on reced.a2schools.org. Having your account email, participant name, program title, and the date and amount of the charge will help staff quickly look up your record. ([reced.a2schools.org](https://reced.a2schools.org/classes/about-us?utm_source=openai))

Can scholarships or discounts affect how Rec & Ed charges appear on my statement?

Yes. If you receive a Rec & Ed scholarship, BOE fee waiver, senior discount, or other subsidy, the amount charged to your card may be reduced from the full program fee. On your statement you’ll see only the net amount you paid, while your Rec & Ed account and registration confirmation will show the applied discount or scholarship.
