Early School

Due to state licensing requirements, this program runs under the supervision of the Early School and prior registration is required. Please contact the Early School directly by emailing Lisa Mers at [email protected]

Lower School

You must indicate in SchoolPass (prior to 2:30 p.m.) or by contacting the Lower School Office (after 2:30 p.m.) that your child will attend. You must pick your child up in person prior to 5:00 p.m. Extended Day consists of free play, games, activities on the field, arts and crafts, and other supervised on campus activities with qualified and experienced staff. 

Lower School Extended Day is as needed, on a drop in basis and no pre-registration is required. Fees are charged at the rate of $20 per day. 

Middle School

Supervised study and work time. Middle School students are expected to report to Extended Day promptly after school and be picked up no later than 5:00 p.m. Please note that Middle School students cannot pick up their Lower or Early School sibling, only authorized adults or Upper School students are allowed to do so.

Students are always supervised by St. Margaret’s staff and brought to afternoon programs.

Students in Kindergarten through Grade 2 will be escorted to the enrichment class/club meeting area by a teacher, co-teacher or after school teacher.

Students in grades 3 through 5 walk on their own to the meeting place.

Attendance for each club will be taken and students have time for a snack and bathroom break. Club instructors will pick students up and walk them to the location for class/club.

CHANGE FROM PREVIOUS YEARS: to make the registration time more equitable for everyone, included working families, registration opens at 7:00 p.m. and is on a first come, first serve basis. Some classed sell out very quickly so register early!

Fall 2024: Monday, August 5 through Friday, August 23. Registration opens at 7:00 p.m. 

Winter 2024: Monday, October 14 through Friday, November 1.

Spring 2025: Monday, February 3 through Friday, February 14. 

Pick up after enrichment classes and Dance Conservatory classes is as follows:

ALL Dance pick up is in the PAC parking lot.

All "regular" clubs and enrichment class pick up (KG- Grade 8) is in the Lower School parking lot. 

Pack an extra snack for you child on the day they have an activity after school. This should be something healthy and easy to open. NO PEANUT PRODUCTS.

For Lower School students, it is strongly suggested you pack the snack for after school separate from lunch and snack for during school. Many students will eat their snack during the day and are hungry after school. 

Middle School students are allowed to use the vending machine to purchase a snack with parent permission.

No refunds/credits will be issued after September 6 for the Fall Session. 

No refunds/credits will be issued after November 15 for the Winter Session.

No refunds/credits will be issued after March 28 for the Spring Session.

No refunds/credits will be issued after September 13 for yearlong Dance Conservatory classes UNLESS there is a waiting list and your child's spot can be filled.

Prior to those dates you may withdraw your student from any class for any reason.

Registration is on a first come, first serve basis. Once a class is full, you can place your child on the wait list free of charge. If a spot becomes available, your student will be enrolled into the class and you will be notified per email or phone call. If you want the spot, you will receive an invoice per email. You will need to pay the invoice to confirm your child's spot in the class. Without payment, their spot is not guaranteed. If you no longer want the spot please notify us so we can contact the next family on the wait list.

We do our best to accommodate every student in their choice of after school program but sometimes space is limited. Many clubs will sell out the day registration opens. Register early to save your spot.

Until the day of registration, all classes, days, times, grade levels, cost and teachers are subject to change and cancellation. If there are very few students enrolled in a class after registration opens online, you will be notified that the class is at risk of being cancelled, prior to the first class meeting. We make every effort to run every class but if a minimum number of students is not reached, we may have to cancel. You will be offered alternative classes for the same day if possible. If no other classes work for you, you will receive a full refund.

If you want to transfer your child to a different class please contact us and will try to make the requested change. If the class you are requesting is more expensive in either tuition or materials fee you will be billed the difference. Should we cancel a class due to low enrollment a full refund will be issued.
