The purpose of the School Age Child Care Program is to provide adult supervision before and after school hours for students whose parents work outside the home. The School Age Child Program is not an educational program and does not provide educational services, including special education and/or related services necessary to implement a child's IEP. The information below highlights a few important items from the Parent and Information Manual. Please make sure you recieve a manual when your child is registered to answer any other questions you may have.

Tax Reporting

Parents are responsible for keeping all receipts and checks from the child care to total and report payments on income tax forms.

The School Age Child Care Program closes promptly at 6:00 p.m. If you arrive later, you will be charged an additional fee of $5.00 for each 15 minutes per child, or a portion thereof, after the 6:00 p.m. sign-out time. (Don't be late!)

The program will operate: 1) On the days that the public school is in session. 2) Full day schedules on snow days in zone schools, if not in each center. 3) On conference days and professional developement days for parents choosing this service at $12.00 per day.
