The Afterschool and Summer programs are now licensed. Families can now apply for a subsidy to cover the cost of their child(ren) attending. The subsidy applies to both the school year and summer, however, we will not be charging for the school year until the fall. Subsidies applied for will start with the summer program (06/29/26-07/31/26). Registration for summer is now closed.

Stacey Gillen has joined us as a new Site Coordinator for our program.
