Frequently Asked Questions
Signing Up & Paying
Do I need to sign up for Extended Care?
How much does it cost and what are my payment options?
There are two options: unlimited monthly flat rate or hourly drop in. The unlimited flat rate option ($400/month) requires an automated monthly electronic bank withdrawal pre-payment, using this authorization ACH form. Months with 5 or more weekdays without school are pro-rated.
If you do not enroll in this unlimited flat rate option, you will pay the hourly drop in rate ($11.50 per hour) that is invoiced at the end of each month.
