May 29th 2020
We are having to hire additional personnel to supervise students left behind on Early Release Days, as after-care is full on most days. After the 30 min pick up window, a $15 fee will be assessed. Elementary pick up is 12:45-1:15. Middle School (w/ elem. siblings) is 1:00-1:30.
On Oct. 30th, we had 42 children still waiting at 1:45pm, a full hour after school dismissed and when the staff was in a faculty meeting and professional development session. Aftercare can not absorb 42 late pick ups. We will be billing the $15 late fee and hiring additional staff/substitute teachers for Early Release Days.
