The purpose of the Extended School Program is to provide an environment in which children can be safe and educationally stimulated during the hours when there is no adult supervision in their home. By using available school facilities and the support system of trained school personnel who can assist in planning, we provide a program that benefits emotionally, socially, physically, and educationally.

This is a program designed with the families of working parents in mind. It is not baby-sitting, however. Any parents, working or non-working, may enroll their children in the Extended School Program.
