The hourly rate for extended care is $9 per hour, per student. The rate is accumulated each 30-minute interval, so if you sign your child out at 4:20 p.m., you will be charged only $4.50 for the time between 4 p.m. and 4:20 p.m., rather than being charged $9 for the whole hour. There is no longer a registration fee for extended care.

Morning care hours run 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. on school days.

After care hours run 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. on school days. Keep in mind, we have a late pickup fee for any pickup time after 6 p.m., which is $25.

If we have an early dismissal, we will typically offer after care from noon to 6 p.m.

Extended care is billed monthly for the previous month's usage at a rate of $9 per hour, per student. There is no registration fee, but we do ask that you enroll at the time of your enrollment in school, or complete the contract if you are enrolling mid-year.
