We have made revisions to the After Care program at The Montessori House based on our first 4 weeks of operation.  We’ve recognized that parents need a better-tailored option for emergency care, especially when running late for pick-up.  These changes accomplish that goal while still freeing our teachers immediately after the scheduled pick-up time to attend to their recordkeeping and learning environment tasks.

*        First, we will no longer levy a $10 penalty fee for the 1^st hour of unscheduled/emergency After Care or for After Care use without pre-payment; and we will credit this penalty amount to all families who incurred it during the initial month of the program.

*        Second, for future unscheduled/emergency care, we will charge $5 for children picked up by 3:20 p.m.  For children picked up after 3:20 p.m., we will charge $15 for care until from 3:00 pm. to 4:00 p.m., and the normal After Care rates after 4 p.m.

You may pick up a revised After Care description at school.
