School Age Care
School’s out? We’re in!
Learning doesn’t have to end when the school day does.
Our School Age Care program provides education (and fun!) after school and during school vacations (including summer). The year-round services and extended hours keep children safe and learning while giving working parents flexibility.
Our School Age Care program offers recreational activities, summer field trips, and homework help with a strong focus on promoting children’s understanding and competence in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
Like all of our comprehensive, all-inclusive educational programming, our School Age Care program offers meals, referrals for social services, family support, enrichment programs, and field trips.
