Late pickup fees
Extended Day supervision is not offered beyond 6:00 pm. If you are late picking up your child, you will be charged $1.00 PER CHILD, FOR EVERY MINUTE YOU ARE LATE. This charge is DUE AT TIME OF PICKUP. It is necessary to offset the additional cost of care and will be strictly enforced. Please take into consideration the Extended Day workers who also need to get home to their families. We do understand that emergencies do arise from time to time. Please make back up arrangements for your child’s pick up if you might be late. After three late pick-ups we reserve the right to remove your child from the Extended Day Program and you will need to find alternate after school care.
Pickup procedures
To ensure the safety of your child, the following procedures MUST be followed:
1. All children will be picked up in the designated area.
2. All children will be signed out by the adult picking them up. Children are not allowed to sign themselves out.
3. A picture ID will be required until the Extended Day Staff is able to recognize each adult picking up their student.
4. Be sure to list on the registration form all persons that you give your consent to pick up your child. We will not release your child to anyone who does not appear on the form unless prior arrangements have been made. (Phone calls will be accepted on emergency basis only.)
5. Please inform all persons picking up your child that your child will not be released to them if they do not have the proper photo ID.
