Extended Care Program
Because many of our families need flexibility in the time they bring their children to and from school, we provide Extended Care, a before and/or after class option.
Children may be scheduled on a regular or occasional basis, as long as openings are available. Any child enrolled at Central Preschool and Kindergarten may be enrolled in Extended Care (however, please note that your child must be toilet trained in order to be enrolled in Extended Care).
