Approximately 10,000 students per day participate in this program. The morning programs generally begin at 7:00 a.m. until school starts and the afternoon programs open at school dismissal until 6:00 p.m. The program is available every day school is in session including Early release days.

    Objectives

    Our program provides opportunities for children to develop socially, emotionally, and physically, within a warm and caring atmosphere. This is accomplished through our focus on leadership, academics, wellness, and S.T.E.A.M. (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math). The Extended Day program is a Before/After School Child Care Program for elementary through high school aged children. Supervision is provided at a ratio of 1 adult to 18 children at the Elementary level and a ratio of 1 adult to 24 for children at the Middle/High School levels.
