Before & After Care

Our Before & After Care program is available for students who arrive before 7:30 AM (grades K2-2) / 7:30 AM (grades 3-12). The program is also available for students who remain on campus after 3:30 PM.  Students who arrive outside of the allotted drop-off and pick-up times will be placed in this program for supervision. Parents will be charged monthly for this program according to the current fee schedule which is $10.00/hour.  

Before Care begins each morning at 6:30 AM, and After Care ends at 6:00 PM. Parents who pick up their children after 6:00 PM will be charged $1.00 per minute per child.  

Appointments that extend beyond dismissal time are not exempt from charges. Likewise, if an appointment runs beyond 6:00 PM, late fees at a rate of $1.00 per minute per child will still be assessed.

If school is delayed due to inclement weather, Before Care will be canceled.  If school closes early due to inclement weather, After Care will be canceled.

School Delays and Cancellations

Students will report directly to their classrooms and may arrive no earlier than 15 minutes before that time. Before Care will NOT be provided if the school is on a delayed schedule.
  • If school is closed early due to inclement weather or other emergencies, there will be NO After Care.
  • When school is closed, all Before & After Care programs will also be closed.
  • When there is an early closing and After Care is not available, parents will have 30 minutes to pick up their children from the time that they are notified. Parents who are unable to pick up their children in that timeframe will be charged a fee of $1 per minute per child on their school account.

Medication

In some cases, children require medication after normal school hours. If a child has asthma, a second inhaler must be kept for him/her in the After Care room. All other forms of medication must be administered in the school office prior to regular dismissal.
