Program Updates

We have gotten off to a great start this week, just a few reminders below:

  1. Pick up times- Our program is designed to run for 2 hours directly after school so our teachers will plan to begin checkout exactly 2 hours after your child was released.  Also, you will need to come into the building to check your child out as there will be no supervision at the front of the building.  Teachers will stay in the classroom with all students until their proper  guardian has come in to check them out.
  2. WE STILL NEED STUDENTS!!  We have open enrollment until October 5th and then if class sizes are not at their minimum requirement then we will have to cancel classes.  If you have any questions about the classes at your school please contact customer service.
  3. Dismissal Forms- Please print, fill out, and send those form with your child to class this week.  If we do not get them from you this week then your child will not be allowed to participate in the program.
