Extended Day Program Information
The St. Peter the Apostle Catholic Classical School Extended Day Program is offered by the school as a way to make our families’ lives a little easier, allowing parents and caregivers a bit more flexibility in their schedule.
The program is under the direct supervision of the principal, therefore the students receive the consistency of both the guidelines and the staff he/she is familiar with throughout the day.
The Extended Day Program is not a day care program, and legally cannot operate as one. Extended Day may only be open on days the school is open. Extended Day will be closed on:
- Noon Dismissal days
- school holidays
- some days prior to major school holidays
- other occasions where the faculty needs to meet
These days may or may not be on the school calendar; the days will be published as soon as they are available.
Extended Day is open only to registered SPS students. The program begins at 3:30 until 5:30 p.m. The children are supervised at all times. Time spent in Extended Day is utilized for further academic support. However, it is not used for tutorials.
Behavior expectations for SPS Extended Day are the same as during the school day. If a child is found to be a discipline problem, the parent may be called to pick up the child. Whether or not the child is allowed to return will be the sole decision of the Extended Day supervisor and the principal. Any child whose behavior shows consistent disregard for the rules, or disrespect towards the staff will not be allowed to return to Extended Day.
Extended Day rates are as follows:
- $5 per child for the first 30 minutes*
- An additional $10 per child for the next hour
- An additional $10 per child for the last hour
- For each minute past 6:00 p.m., a late fee of $5 per minute per child will be assessed.
* (After 4 p.m., partial time in Extended Care counts as a full hour.)
Extended Day costs are expected to be paid at the end of each week. If a family is significantly overdue in their payment, their student will be unable to attend Extended Day.
