FEE- $330 per installment
First installment is due August 25th. The last installment is due May 25th.
We are no longer offering part-time options. We understand you may not use all days of service. This model allows us to maintain staffing while providing families with access to care when they need it.
A Typical Day Includes:
Themed learning activities, play, stories, crafts, gym, and outdoor time.
Homework help is not a scheduled part of ATB, however, opportunities for students to independently do homework are provided daily. Screen time is limited and new friendships are encouraged.
Hours:
After the Bell operates on regular school days from school dismissal until 6:00 pm. ATB is not a drop-in program. Your child will be escorted from their classroom to the After the Bell location. Typically this means the cafeteria at their elementary school.
School Age Seasonal Camps & Non-School Day Camps
We offer non-school day camps and seasonal camps during the year at various locations, including the local elementary schools in OCSD, from 8am - 5pm. You do not have to utilize our After the Bell services to participate in these camp days. Camp cost is our daily rate of $80/student.
