Before Care and After Care 2023-2024

Koraes Elementary School offers Before and After Care for our students, preschool through grade 8. Our Before Care program is available from 7:30 until 8:15, and our After Care program is available from 3:31- 4:30. There are days throughout the school year when it will not be offered. Those dates will be posted in Notables.

Parents can choose to register for Before and After Care for the entire school year and receive those services at a reduced rate. To be fully registered a $50 NON REFUNDABLE family registration fee along with the registration form must be received by September 15. Registration fee for Before/After Care increases to $75 per family after September 15, 2023.

Parents who do not register in advance and only use Before or After Care infrequently will be assessed the drop in rate of $25 per child per session.

ALL PARENTS: After Care starts at EXACTLY 3:31. Teachers are not contractually obligated to stay later than 3:30, unless it is their day to work after care. Students will not be sent to the office to wait for a late pick up arrival.

Any student remaining at 3:31 will be escorted to After Care and signed in. Parents will be responsible for drop in payment if they are not already registered for the After Care program.
