SCHOOL AGE & VIRTUAL LEARNERS

As the pandemic continues, and online-learning becomes a vital part of education, we are offering full-day child care for students, while parents are working from home or returning to work. The goal of this program is to offer a positive experience and opportunities for children to learn in a peer surrounded setting, while following an academic daily schedule. 

This program will continue to evolve as we learn what the school districts are offering and adjust our programs to meet the needs of parents in these districts.
