Policies

Enrollment and Billing
Trimester fees:  Paid in advance or billed monthly.
Drop-in Fees:  Billed monthly.

Signing in and out
The Extended Day teacher will sign in students who are enrolled in the program each afternoon.  As with regular school days, if there is a change in pick-up, the school must be notified by both parents involved in the change.

Drop-In Policy
Drop-ins are permitted for the Explorers Bridge and Lower/Middle Drop-In Programs.  Drop-ins will work on their homework, which is checked at 4:00.  (If homework is completed correctly, the student then plays quietly, reads, or, when appropriate, joins club activities.)

Pick-Up
Carpool (or parent) pick-up is at 4:30.  In all student relationships, use of church facilities, etc. TWS classroom standards apply.  (For clarification refer to the Parent-Student Handbook, especially the Appendix section on habits.)

Late Pick-up
Pickups that occur after 3:10 (for Explorers’ Bridge), 4:35 (for Drop-In and Club), or after 6 pm will be charged a late fee of $5 for every 5 minutes late.

Carpool Policies
Parents have the option of parking early and coming in to see the end of a club, but they need to sign out promptly at 4:30 and depart to allow club teachers time to clean up.  Parents who wish to come early must enter the building by 4:00.  Parents may also park under the canopy, where children will be dismissed to them.  Parents entering the queue, however, may find they have to wait for another car, as students finish activities at different speeds.

Inclement Weather and Half Days
If the school is closed for inclement weather, the Extended Day Program will be canceled that day also.  Extended Day will be held on full school days but not on half days.

Discipline
The policies in our Parent-Student Handbook apply to the Extended Day program.

Bridge Program Lunch
Explorers students participating in the Bridge program bring their own lunch from home.

Snack
The school will provide a healthy snack every day after 3:10 dismissal (before the beginning of club time, except runners who will snack after their run), at no additional cost.
