Extended Day Handbook

INTRODUCTION

The following is provided as general information for families using Extended Day. This information is considered important to your child’s safety as well as for the basic operation of the Extended Day program.

ENROLLMENT

An emergency information card is required to be on file. A copy of this card is available online in Forms. It is mandatory that this card be kept up-to-date and that the Extended Day program is notified in writing of any changes to your emergency contact information. Click Here for the St. Anselm Extended Day Code of Conduct. This needs to be signed and turned in.

HOURS

Extended Day is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 – 8:00 a.m. and from 12:30/3:00 – 5:30 p.m. Extended Day follows the school calendar and will be closed all school holidays and vacations. Extended Day will be open for morning sessions only on the Friday before the Festival of Fun and the last day of school.

COSTS AND BILLING

$12 per hr per child.

Payment is automatically invoiced and billed through the parents' FACTs account at the end of each month.

Once a child is checked into Extended Day a one hour minimum will be charged with subsequent hours calculated in quarter increments.

Morning hours - flat rate of $6.25.

LATE PICK-UP

The Extended Day staff is employed until 5:30 p.m. Please respect the staff and closing time. A fee of $3.00 will be assessed for each minute after 5:30 p.m. for late pick-ups. Example: a 5:45 pick-up late charge would be $45.00. This fee will be added to your monthly bill. If you know you are going to be late, please phone 454-8667 ext. 15.

BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL ATTENDANCE

Children who are dropped off before 7:50 a.m. and those still remaining on the school grounds after 3:25 p.m. will be sent to Extended Day. There will be a charge for the time they are in Extended Day.

SIGN-IN / SIGN-OUT SHEET

A daily sign-in/sign-out sheet is used to record a student’s hourly attendance. It is your responsibility to sign your child out on this sheet. Extended Day staff will not be responsible for an incomplete sign-out time. A blank time space will automatically be billed to 5:30. If someone other than the parent is picking up, be sure that notification either by written note or email has been given to the Extended Day Director. This includes play dates, or changes due to sports, etc. If an individual not known to the Extended Day staff is picking up your child, driver’s license identification must be presented. Please note, your designated pick-up person must be an adult.

LUNCH AND SNACK

One snack is served during the day at 3:00pm on minimum days and 3:45 on regular dismissals for all children in attendance. If your child has special dietary needs (gluten free, nut/food allergy, etc.), please notify the Director.

When children are staying for lunch, please provide a lunch.

Extended Day is a nut free zone. When preparing food for your child attending Extended Day, please check labels and do not include any items containing nuts.

HOMEWORK

Homework time is provided Monday through Thursday. Computers and printer are available as well as supervision and help.

EMERGENCIES

We are unable to accommodate sick children. If your child becomes ill at Extended Day, we will contact a parent or an authorized person to pick him/her up.

It is important that your emergency contact information is kept current.
