McGillis School

AfterSchool Program

PHILOSOPHY/MISSION

The McGillis AfterSchool Program fosters a safe environment that continues social, academic, and creative growth from the regular school day. We believe after hours time spent at school should be fun,and provide for unstructured play, informal study time, and downtime in a safe setting.

PROGRAM

The McGillis School offers an AfterSchool Program for Kindergarten through 8th grade students. It is offered from 3:00 P.M. until 6:00 P.M. each regular school day. Participating students check in with AfterSchool Staff in the Dining Hall at the end of the school day, get a snack, play outside with friends, and either attend an Enrichment Class or remain for our general Activity Time. During general Activity Time, students can choose from: supervised homework time, free play, quiet reading, indoor/outdoor games, and art/craft projects. Parents may choose to have their student(s) participate in supervised homework time by checking the appropriate box on the registration form. Students are responsible for knowing what their homework is and completing it. AfterSchool staff will support students with their homework questions. The AfterSchool Program is an extension of the The McGillis School. AfterSchool students are expected to follow the The McGillis School behavior expectations. Siblings of McGillis students in Kindergarten through 8th grade who do not attend McGillis may attend the McGillis AfterSchool Program.

COST / CHECK OUT POLICY

The cost is $8 per hour (billed at $2 per 15 minute increment). Parents are billed for the time you use the program on a monthly basis. Only authorized adults listed on the registration form may check out your student(s). We require an email or phone call to the AfterSchool Staff if someone other than an authorized adult is picking up your child.

ENRICHMENT CLASSES

Enrichment Classes are additional classes available for students to attend after school for an additional cost. Students may join the AfterSchool Program before 3:30 P.M. when Enrichment Classes begin. Enrichment Class instructors will pick up students that are in AfterSchool and take them to class. We expect parents to pick up students from Enrichment Class instructors at the end of the class or students must join the AfterSchool Program (at the regular hourly rate). 

ALL-DAY CARE PROGRAM

We offer an All-day Care Program from 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. for $60 per day or $100 per family on selected days when school is not in session. These full days include snacks, games, art/craft projects, and an off-campus activity. Your student does not need to be enrolled in the AfterSchool Program to participate in the All-day Care Program. Regular attendance in the AfterSchool Program does NOT automatically enroll your student(s) in the All-day Care. Please complete a separate registration form for our All-day Care Program and turn it into the office by the date specified on the registration form. No students will be accepted after this date and we cannot accept drop-ins or phone registration for our Allday Care Program.
