Drop-off & Pickup

Early drop off is available beginning at 8am. Please let us know in advance that you need this coverage so we can welcome your child. If you do not have an 8-6 school program, you will need to pay by Voucher Hours for early drop-off. You can pay by credit card or check at the front desk.

If your child’s program begins at 9am, please do not arrive before 8:50am or later than 9:20am. The structure and continuity of the children’s activities are disrupted by late arrivals.

Give your child time to settle into an activity before you leave the classroom, then be sure to say a quick, cheerful goodbye. This will help your child feel more secure.

Socialize with other parents in the lobby or the lounge. Talking with other parents in the classroom can be distracting.

At pick-up time, please wait until the teachers have opened the classroom door before you go in to meet your child. It is very important for the well-being of your child that you arrive on time. If you do expect to be late, please notify the school so your child can be prepared for the delay.

Children are only released to their parents or to those designated in writing. Alert us in the morning if you have any change of plans and note it on the Going Home Notes hanging in each classroom. We will not release a child to anyone who is not scheduled to pick up your child that day. Keep all contact numbers completely up to date so that you can be reached by the school at any time.

OUR SCHOOL CLOSES AT 6:00pm. If your child is staying until 6, please be here by 5:50 so we can complete our closing in a timely fashion. It is stressful for children and staff to have to stay overtime waiting for late pick-ups. Late pickup fees may be assessed.
