Other possible center closings due to weather or other reasons will be announced throughout the year.
The “NO SCHOOL DAY” Program
Throughout the school year, the elementary school is closed for various reasons. During these ”No School Days” the 3K & 4K program is also closed. Your child (ren) then may choose to attend the “No school Day“ program that is offered during school breaks for children ages 3 through age 12 , which is held in our before and after school classroom.
If your child needs such care, you must register your child in advance, using a “ No School Day” form, which will be given to the parents throughout the school year.
If you do decide to use this program, there will be a $4.00 per hour fee for each child in attendance.
