Extended Care Options

We understand the importance of flexibility for working parents, which is why we offer convenient extended care:

Before Care: 7:30 AM – 9:00 AM

After Care: 3:30 PM – 5:30 PM

Both options are available on a drop-in basis and billed separately. (See our Tuition page for details on fees.)

Our school year runs from the Tuesday after Labor Day through the Friday before Memorial Day, offering a consistent, enriching experience for your child throughout the academic year.
