After School Program FAQ

 

Which days do the late buses come and what time do they depart from school?

  • Late buses run Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.
  • Late bus dismissal is at 4:30pm and the buses arrive and depart on a staggered schedule.

What are the rules of the After School Program?

  • Students are required to follow the same rules during the school day.
  • NO phone use, and NO electronics during after school hours.
  • Parents can reach their students by calling the main office until 4:30pm, after that time we allow the use of a cell phone only with parental contact.

What if my child needs extra help or is having difficulty in a certain subject area?

  • If a student needs help they can stay after any day of the week for academic assistance. Basic support can be provided by the After-School Program, but if a student is having a specific problem with certain content they are encouraged to stay after with the teacher of that subject.
  • If the student decides to stay after on a day when there are no late buses then he/she needs to have made prior arrangements to be picked up by a parent or guardian.
  • Students are also encouraged to make appointments with their teachers to get help after-school on the day their teacher stays after. After receiving help from their teacher, the student is welcome to and come join the after-school program.

What happens if school is closed early due to weather conditions?

  • If school closes early due to bad weather then the After-School Program will also be cancelled/closed. Please make sure that you have a contingency plan in place for such events.
