SCHEDULING

Daily block scheduling options are 7:30-12:30; 7:30-3:00; 7:30-5:45 or 12:45-5:45. You will be billed on the basis of these established block(s) times, and you are financially responsible for all the hours scheduled. It is wise to schedule only those blocks that are needed.

It is important that all families adhere to the times they have scheduled. Program routines are structured around the natural breaks during the day when parents drop-off and pick-up.

Exceptions to the block schedule will be made for children who attend kindergarten or grade school for those days on which your child attends school. After school attendees will be scheduled in blocks that are more reflective of their mid-afternoon release times. The regular block times of care for kindergarteners and grade-schoolers are: 2:30-5:45 and 1:15-5:45 on early release days.

On 4j district-wide, no-school days, we will be open all day to provide care in the school-age classrooms. The only school age scheduling option will be the 7:30-5:45 time block, as this age group will often take all-day field trips on these days. If you child is schedule for after-school care on the same day of the week as a 4j district-wide, no-school day, they will automatically be signed-up for all-day care on that day. You will have an opportunity to decline care for that day, or ask for care if you child is not automatically signed-up. An email will be sent at least one week before the 4J district-wide no-school day, explaining what is planned for that day.

If your child enters or leaves a program at times other than these block times, billing will reflect the additional hours of care used. These charges will appear as "Drop-In Hours" on the monthly bill, but are charged at the same hourly rate, and will show on the month following their occurrence.

 



Changes in the schedule requested on your initial application are due in writing, to the Moss Street administrative office prior to the term starting, as follows:

Fall Term, by July 15th, all age groups
.......*Fall Term, by Sept 20th School-age
Winter Term, by Dec 15th, all age groups
Spring Term, by March 15th, all age groups
Summer Term, by June 1st, all age groups

Prior to these dates, families may request schedule reductions for the entire term. After these dates, families will be responsible for the hours requested until the end of the term, which includes finals week.

*Parents of school-age children have an additional, later date, of Sept 20th, to request a change to their fall term schedule, while still maintaining the twice per week minimum scheduling requirment.

When a written schedule change is submitted later than the above deadlines, it will be considered if there is a waiting list for the same time blocks.

Additional block times can be added when both adequate space and staffing permit.

Parents are financially responsible for their confirmed schedule through finals week of a term. This includes scheduled hours that fall on an observed holiday, as well as during inclement weather closures and delays.

Financial responsibility for complete withdrawal extends one full month after the initial written request.
