Parents are asked to sign children up in advance of each month and may choose which Before Care and/or After Care Enrichments they want their children to join. If using Before Care, parents may drop off anytime between 8:00 a.m. and 9:20 a.m. If using After Care, parents may pick up anytime between 2:40 p.m. and 4:00 p.m.  The cost for our Enrichments Program is listed at the bottom of this webpage.

 Current families, families of alumni and first round applicants will be given first priority to enroll for the Fall of 2025.
