Before & After School Care
Saint Mark is licensed to provide Before and After School Childcare for licensed to serve a total of 49 students, up to grade six (no older than 12). Admission to the Before and After School Program is available to any student enrolled in our regular elementary school program up to grade six. Acceptance is on a first come basis by application. Students applying after we have reached the maximum allowed will be placed on a waiting list. Any student in grades K-6 not picked up by 3:00 p.m. will be admitted to our daycare and charged the unregistered fee of $6.00 per hour or any part thereof. Students in 7th and 8th grade will be required to wait in the school office and parents will be assessed a $6.00 per hour late fee. A separate application form is used to register into either or both of the following:
Before School Care: 6:30 - 7:15 a.m.
After School Care: 2:45 – 5:45 p.m. (Wednesdays 1:15 – 5:45 p.m.)
Please refer to the registration form for the current fee schedule. No differential rate, credit, or refund is given for only partial use of the program. Withdrawals will be charged up to the month in which the withdrawal is made. A fee may be charged to reenroll after withdrawal.
This program is not designed for drop-ins or part time use. Regular childcare rates will be charged to your account for late pickups at $6.00 per hour or any part thereof until 5:30 p.m. If possible, arrangements must be made with the school office ahead of time. After closing hours the rate is $5.00 for each 5-minute increment or part thereof.
Included in the program are school days that dismiss at 11:45 a.m. Students are to bring their own lunch on those days. The program does NOT include vacation periods such as Fall Break, Christmas Break, and Spring Break.
The daily activities for the After School Care Program include outdoor play, homework, games, and arts and crafts. Students may attend on a “drop-in” status if there is room in after-school care on the day it is needed.
A student with an obvious contagious disease will not be admitted to the program without a doctor’s written clearance. Students that show signs of illness will be isolated while waiting to be picked up. Saint Mark does not administer any type of medication, prescribed or otherwise to any student. Arrangementsmust be made for some responsible adult (not an employee of Saint Mark) to administer such medication if required during the program hours.
We do not arrange field trips for this program since children are picked up after school within a wide range of times. All students are assigned a classroom area and are expected to remain on campus at all times until picked up by a designated adult. We do not provide transportation to and from school.
