Pickup is promptly at 4:45 pm in the front lobby. A late fee will be incurred after a 15-minute grace period.
It is recommended to pack your child an afternoon snack, as most clubs allow time to eat while students are filing in and attendance is being taken.
AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS WILL NOT RUN ON DAYS WHERE THERE IS A HALF DAY OR NO SCHOOL.
Please note the dates of “No Class” for each activity. While most activities align with our school calendar, some activities run on a different schedule. Jami recommends adding the “No Class” dates to your personal calendar.
