EXTENDED DAY PROGRAM
To meet the needs of the parents of the St. Sebastian Catholic Academy, the Faculty and Staff will continue our Extended Day Program. We provide quality care in a safe and familiar environment. It has been very helpful to parents who have to work and will give them peace of mind knowing their children are in the hands of professional caregivers.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
- For the students in Grades 3K through 5
- Students in the 3K program must be potty trained.
- The program is available on every day the school is in session except for the day before a long vacation. The program is available from dismissal until 6:00PM
- The program is on premises in the John Paul Room. Use Exit D for pick-up. Should there be a change of location, you will be notified.
- Snacks will be provided by the program. Healthy snacks are provided to the best of our ability. You are also encouraged to send snacks if your child has their own preferences.
- Afterschool payments must be made in advance. At the start of each month you will be asked to choose the days you need afterschool care and prepay for the days.
- At the end of each month, you will receive a statement of days in attendance, payment made and any balance owed. In the instance there is a credit for days not used, the payment will be applied to the next month. Any outstanding balance must be paid by the 7th of the month.
- You will not be able to use the program if there is a failure to pay outstanding balances.
