The Extended Care Program

We believe the Extended Care Program at St. Mary's should be a positive experience for your child/children. Each student is given the opportunity to build self-esteem and develop relationships through various supervised activities. Strong adult role models guide and encourage cooperation among the students. The Extended Care Program staff will strive to meet these needs through reading and homework time, table games and crafts, puzzles and toys, supervised sports and recreation, and snacks.

The Extended Care Program is available on all school days from 3:30 to 6:00 pm except on the last day of school. On early dismissal days, the program is from 12 noon - 6:00 p.m.

The cost for registered students is $5 per student on regular school days and $10.00 a day per student on early dismissal days. Emergency care for non-registered students is available for $10.00 per day, per student. If a student is not picked up by the 6:00 p.m. deadline, the parent/guardian must pay a $1.00 per minute late fee.

An advance payment of $100.00 per full-timed student and $50.00 for a part-time student is due before noon on the second day of school. Payments for the following months are due by the 20th of each month. No bills will be sent unless the account is past due, therefore, it is important to keep accurate records. If the Extended Care program is to be used regularly, $100.00 may be added to the monthly tuition payment. At the end of the school year, any unused Extended Care payments will be refunded in the form of a check to be mailed in June.
