We will not be able to extend after care services until the account is brought up-to-date.
•All monthly tuition is due on the first of each month. A late fee will be added after the tenth.
•On weeks that school is out two or more days and after school care is open, the charge for that week will be pro-rated.

A $52.00 drop-in fee per day will be charged for children needing to stay all day when school is not in session.
Vacation
Full-time children attending after school care from the first day of school to the last day of school will be allowed five consecutive days of vacation at no charge. Vacation time is only given when the child does not attend for that week. Another week of vacation is given to those students in after school care who attend the Summer Day Camp the duration of the program. If the school term vacation is not used during the school year, two weeks vacation may be taken during the summer program at no charge. Please notify the PreK office (ext. 4311) two weeks prior to the vacation week in order to receive this benefit. NOTE: If a child withdraws from after school care for even a brief period of time, the vacation time is forfeited.
