Drop-In

Students Pre-K–5th Grade may attend an ongoing class for the day. Please check with the After School Office for availability. Financial aid is not available for the After School Drop-In Program. 

Please also email your child's classroom teacher and Bryanna Parker (bparker@ecfs.org) and let them know that they will be staying after school. 

Financial Aid

Financial Aid for After School programming is available to families receiving financial aid from the School. The cost of After School program fees is calculated using the percentage of family obligation for tuition.

Classes are 50% refundable after the second class, and there will be no refunds after the third class. There are no refunds for snow days or other emergency closures.

After school students are dismissed at 5:00pm Monday through Friday from the lower cafeteria. Each student must check out with their teacher before leaving. Ice Skating and Tournament Chess are dismissed at 5:30pm.
