Extended Care Program
Morning Care |
St. Thomas More School offers Morning Extended Care from 7:00 a.m. to 7:45 a.m. each school morning. Starting on the second day of school through the last school day of the year. Morning Care is held in the First Grade classroom under the supervision of Sue Kapovich, the First Grade teacher and Morning Care Coordinator. Students may read a book, do some schoolwork or any other quiet activity. This is not a time for eating breakfast. At 7:45, they leave the classroom and are escorted to the schoolyard, which is supervised from 7:45 to 8:10 a.m.
This is a non-refundable fee of $375 per child to use this service. Morning care is not a drop-in program. All students participating must sign up. Payments are billed to FACTS in four equal amounts of $93.75 due on the 15th school day of September, October, November, and December. Parents who need this service on a short-term basis must make arrangements with the Morning Care Coordinator in advance. If space is available, the daily charge is $10.

Afternoon Care |
St. Thomas More School’s Afternoon Extended Care is a drop-in program and may be used as frequently as a family wishes. Once the initial paperwork has been turned in, no other advance sign-up for Afternoon Extended Care is necessary. The program runs from dismissal until 6:00 p.m. on almost all school days. Parents, or a previously authorized person, must sign every child out of the program each day.
The schedule for Afternoon Extended Care begins with a quick snack and then outdoor activities, weather permitting. At approximately 4:00 p.m., the students come into Carroll Hall for a quiet study/homework period that may include arts & crafts, story time or group activities for kindergarten students. Students who have athletic practice, or otherwise need extra homework time, may skip the outdoor activities provided they study quietly. The fee for Afternoon Extended Care is $5.00 per hour (or fraction thereof) for each child in a family. If a child is not picked up by 6:00 PM, then greatly increased additional charges will apply. Charges will be billed to your FACTS account monthly. Afternoon Extended Care Service Agreement Afternoon Extended Care Parent Authorization Form Afternoon Extended Care Allergy Form |
