Welcome to LVES Extended Day!

My name is Krissi Meadows. I am the Extended Day Director. (I'm also the Music Teacher.) I am so excited for the opportunity to work with your children in the extended day program. To make this program successful for everyone involved, I have listed some guidelines below. Please read these carefully along with your Parent Handbook.

 Morning Care is from 6:45-7:30 every morning that we are in school and will begin on the 2nd day of the school year. After-School Care is from 2:55-5:45 every day that we are in school with the exception of half-days. Students must be picked up by 5:45 each day in order to avoid a late fee and possible expulsion from the program. THERE WILL BE A $10 FEE, DUE AT THE TIME OF PICKUP, FOR EVERY 5 MINUTES THAT YOU ARE LATE WHEN PICKING UP YOUR CHILD. We realize that traffic can be unpredictable and meetings can run late, but these will not be allowed as excuses for tardiness. Please have several people on standby to pick up your child should there be an instance when you cannot be here at the appropriate time. Excessive tardiness will NOT be allowed. Offenses will be noted on your child's account. On the third offense, your child will not be allowed to come back to extended day.

 There is a $12 Registration Fee per child per year which registers your child for morning care and after school care. This fee does not apply to tuition and is not refundable. Daily tuition is $8 ($2 for morning care) per child, payable in advance of stay. If your child is here ALL WEEK, tuition is discounted to $35 for one child, $60 for two. (See handbook for more info on weekly rates with additional children.) Tuition payments are due every Friday for the following week. Fees can also be paid in advance on a bi-monthly basis. If you are sending a payment to your child's classroom, please be sure to put it in an envelope labeled EXTENDED DAY, YOUR CHILD'S NAME, AND PAYMENT AMOUNT. Balances MUST be paid on time for your child to continue to stay in extended day. Registration forms and fees should be turned in one day prior to your child attending after school or morning care.

 ALL PERSONAL BELONGINGS should be clearly marked with the child's name. Electronic devices, Pokemon cards, or other collectible cards WILL NOT BE ALLOWED in the program. LVES and its staff cannot be held responsible for lost or stolen items.

 After-school snacks will be provided FREE of charge for all students. A menu will be posted in the lunchroom. We can provide a menu upon your request. If your child has an allergy or medical issue, please notify us in writing along with a doctor’s excuse.

 We want your children to have a fun, safe, learning, and play environment. BULLYING OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF INAPPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. Students WILL show respect for teachers, workers, and each other or disciplinary action will be taken. Whenever possible, we will do everything we can to correct inappropriate behavior. Parents will be notified if an offense should occur.

Please sign and return the participation form at the back of the handbook. If you need to reach me, you can leave a message in the school office or contact me directly at [email protected].

We appreciate your support of this program and LVES! Together we will make this a GREAT year! Krissi Meadows
