PURPOSE
To provide extended supervision before and after regular school hours for GHBS K3-12 students who need to arrive prior to 7:45 a.m., or who have not been picked up by 3:30 p.m. If a parent is present, a student must immediately leave Extended Care and transfer to the parent.
HOURS
6:30 a.m. - 7:45 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. (August 31, 2026 - June 4, 2027)
PROGRAM
Students may bring snacks, work on homework, or recreate.
FINANCES
K5-12 = The charge per hour for Extended Care is $12.00 per family. Charges are billed in quarter-hour increments to the closest quarter-hour (i.e. - a student who is picked up from Extended Care at 4:40 p.m. will be charged $15.00 for 1.25 hours at $12.00 per hour). For students not picked up by 6:00 p.m., a $12.00 fee (in addition to the regular $12.00 per hour charge) will be billed for every 15 minutes or part thereof after 6:00 p.m.)

When children are not picked up by 6:00 p.m., a $12.00 fee (in addition to the regular $8.00 per hour charge) will be billed for every 15 minutes or part thereof after 6:00 p.m.
​
Late pickup/early drop-off charges billed on the monthly statement received at the beginning of a month are due on the 10th of that month.
SIBLINGS IN
EXTRACURRICULAR
ACTIVITIES
Students who have siblings involved in GHBS extracurricular activities (tutoring, sport practices, home games, yearbook, etc.) will not be charged while in Extended Care until the extracurricular activity ends. At this point, the siblings involved in the extracurricular activities will be sent to Extended Care and normal charges will apply.
HOLIDAY
Extended Care is provided only when GHBS is in session and is not available for K5-12 when school is half-day (except Early Care), or for K3-12 on certain days that will be pre-announced.
SIGN OUT
Students will be signed-in when they arrive in Extended Care and signed-out when they leave. Advance notification must be given to the school office if someone other than a previously authorized person will be picking up a student.
