6.1 BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL POLICIES AND PROGRAMS
“GATOR” EXTENDED SCHOOL DAY CARE PROGRAM
Extended Care (Gator Club) is provided for students who do not have an adult to care for them before and/or after school. All students of Assumption BVM School are eligible for Extended Care.
The program is an integral part of the school and shares its philosophy and goals. The overall well-being of each child is nourished in a Christian atmosphere. A safe and caring environment is provided to promote a sound social, emotional, and academic center for the growth and development of the whole child.
The students in Extended Care chose the name “Gator Club” because the school mascot is the alligator and our sports teams are known as the “Assumption Gators.” Gator Club is situated in Crean Hall and the playground.
The Extended Care Program includes:
Time set aside for homework with staff available for individual help
Art & crafts and cooking activities
Nature and hands-on science activities
A variety of outdoor and indoor games
Daily snacks
Conflict resolution/peer mediation
Health and safety instruction
Training of staff is ongoing with staff meetings and workshops pertaining to school-age child care and supervision.
A registration packet which sets forth the written policies and guidelines regarding eligibility, schedules, and procedures is available to all those who participate in the program from the Gator Club Director.
Further information about Extended Care may be obtained from the school office or by contacting the Gator Club at (213) 864-6382 or (626) 793-2089 ext. 304.
