The ratio for extended care is 1:9.

Cost

The cost for extended care is $7.00 per hour or $3.50 per half hour beyond your child’s preschool class hours. If your child misses their scheduled extended care hours, you are still responsible for payment. You will not be responsible to pay if school is cancelled due to bad weather. Payment is due every two weeks.

Rest and Quiet Activities

Each day Rise & Shine will offer your child a rest time if they are attending more than five hours. Each child will have his/her own cot. They will be given the choice to rest or read quietly for 40 minutes.

Meals

Your child will be given the opportunity to eat lunch every day. Parents must provide the lunch. Please note that we are not able to refrigerate lunches. As a requirement by the State, all lunches are to have food from all four food groups. Snack will also be offered during extended care hours. You may be asked to help supplement the snack supplies.

Pick-Up

Parents for extended care will need to come the school door to pick-up their child. Since each child will be picked up at a different time, parents will need to ring the bell at the school’s front door. The front door will be locked during the afternoon and evening extended care hours.

Late Pick-Up

It is very important to the staff both professionally and personally that your children are picked up on time. If your child is picked up late from extended care then you will be assessed $1 per minute. If you are late more than three times between September and December, and three times between January and May, your child will be disenrolled.

Payment Schedule

Each month you will receive a Google form to fill out. This form will show which days care is needed. Please fill out the form and submit it by the due date. Once Mrs. McBride (mrsmcbride@riseandshineeducation.com) receives the form, she will enter your extended care charges into your ProCare account. Payment is then due on the 1st of the month. If you do not pay by the 1st of each month a $10 penalty will be added to your extended care bill. You are responsible to pay for the charges that are indicated in your account. You may request to add dates at cost, but if you choose to remove dates without a two week notice, you are still responsible to pay the amount indicated on your account and the Google form you submitted. If you wish to change your child’s schedule then you will need to fill out a, “Change of Schedule Request,” which you can find above. Teachers will then be notified of your schedule.
