 Extended Day Programs 

Evergreen Extended Day Program


Overview:
The objective of the program is to provide children a quality afternoon experience at the school consistent and supportive of our Waldorf Community. Activities are designed in a rhythmic flow that enables children to rest and contemplate contrasted with an organized craft or cooking experience and outdoor exercise.

Registration:
Pre-registration is required for all children including families who may only need "drop in" care on occasion. Please pre-register in the office.

Cost:
Monthly pre-scheduled rate: $5.50/hour (9% discount); must be pre-scheduled AND pre-paid on or before the 24th of the previous month. Daily drop-in rate: $6.00/hour; billed on a monthly basis.  Charges accrue to the nearest quarter hour.  Other Fees: $5.00 per each 5 minute increment will be assessed on all pick-ups after 5:30 PM.

Lunch and Snacks:
The children will bring their own healthy snacks and their lunches in a basket with a napkin place mat (limit prepackaged foods please).

Arts and Crafts:
Children love to make gifts, create items in support of the many festivals at the school, and learn new skills.  The creative aspect of learning in this program will provide ample opportunities in different mediums for your child's enrichment.

Rest/Story times (for early childhood children):
Resting and listening to a story or having time for a quiet breathing out is beneficial to children each and every day and is built into our daily rhythm.

Free Play:

Free Play takes many forms:  Dramatic play, games and conversations, book reading, knitting, drawing, clay modeling are sometimes the activity of choice.

Outside Time:
The school, which has an 11 acre campus, has several playgrounds, open fields, gardens, and its own small forest.  Outside play at the school is a time for us to run, play games, climb, and experience all that our space has to offer.
