Afterschool Activities
St. Genevieve offers a plethora of afterschool activities to enrich the development of your child.
However, in order to attend afterschool activities, including try-outs of any kind, students must
be present at school during the day. Partial absences due to medical appointments excluded.
All students should report to daycare afterschool (free of charge) until their coach/director
arrives to begin practice. If a practice is cancelled at the last minute (day-of) for any reason
including the coach/teacher being ill, all students may report to daycare FREE OF CHARGE until
their regularly scheduled activity would have been over. Once the activity ends, there is a 15-
minute grace period for parents to pick up their student. After 15 minutes, they will be sent to
daycare and parents will be charged. An afterschool activity from 3:30 – 4:30 does not equal
free daycare until 6pm.
Athletics
Students in grades K-8 are invited to participate in the St. Genevieve Valiant Athletics afterschool program. Each individual athletic program will require a $85 fee. Parents will be
required to provide transportation for their students to and from practices and games. All
school rules apply to the sports program. Students must be in good academic standing to
participate (above a 2.0 at all times during the season). Practice time and days will be up to the
coach’s discretion. All students in sports should report to daycare (free of charge) until their
coach arrives for practice time. They should not wait on the benches or in the Main Office.
Band/Drumline
Students in grades 3-8 are invited to participate in the St. Genevieve afterschool advanced band
programs at the discretion of the band director. Each individual afterschool band program will
be assessed a fee and parents may be required to assist in the overall fundraising requirements
for the band, separate from the general fundraising parents must do for the school. All school
rules apply to the members of the band program. Students must remain in good academic
standing to participate (above a 2.0) and have good conduct in the classroom (S or above).
Practice times, days and week-end tournaments are up to the band director’s discretion. All
students in band/drumline should report to daycare (free of charge) until their coach arrives for
practice time. They should not wait on the benches or in the Main Office.
Choir
Students in grades K-6 are invited to participate in the St. Genevieve Children’s Choirs after
school. All students in choir should report to daycare (free of charge) until their coach arrives
for practice time. They should not wait on the benches or in the Main Office.
Additional Afterschool Activities
St. Genevieve is proud to offer additional afterschool activities including but not limited to
Academic Decathlon, Spirit Squad, Dance, and Theater Productions. All afterschool activities
are associated with an additional fee to help off-set the program. All school rules apply to the
programs. Students must be in good academic standing to participate (above a 2.0 at all times
during the season). Practice time and days will be up to the coach/teacher’s discretion. All
students should report to daycare (free of charge) until their coach/teacher arrives for practice
time. They should not wait on the benches or in the Main Office.
Daycare/Homework Time
The Daycare/Homework Time is a service to parents who cannot pick up their children after
school or who would like their child/children to receive tutoring with an adult to help with
homework.
Your child’s safety is our number one priority. Children must be picked up within 15 minutes of
dismissal, (3:15 on full days and 1:00 on half days) or they will be sent to the after school
program. Students MAY NOT wait in the office or on the benches for their parents to pick
them up. Older siblings from the high school may not leave campus with elementary students
or take them to the high school side to wait for parents. Please DO NOT put your child in an
unsafe or awkward position by telling them not to report to daycare when all school staff will
direct them to report to daycare at 3:15/1:00pm.
There will be a daily fee of $15 per child charged for students sent to the Program.
Schedule for Daycare/Homework Time
Daycare/Homework Time begins with a break time for students at the close of the school day
where they can eat a snack and play briefly. At 3:15/3:30 pm, students return to classrooms to
work in grade levels to complete homework with the assistance of hired staff.
Reading/Language Arts and Math are prioritized subjects. Homework Time does not ensure
that your child will finish all homework nor that all their homework will be 100% correct. It is
still the parent’s responsibility to check all homework each night.
After homework time concludes at 4:15/4:30, students are permitted to play in shifts.
All students MUST be picked up by 6 pm or incur additional charges.
Payment
All monthly Homework Time and daycare fees will be added to FACTS tuition. Daily, incurred
costs of Daycare/Homework Time should be paid in the main office.
Individual Tutoring
At times students may need additional 1-on-1 tutoring with a classroom teacher. Services may
be arranged with a teacher (this may not be their homeroom teacher) for 1:1 academic support
(not homework) at the rate of $25 per hour. This fee is payable to the main office.
Parents must complete the appropriate paperwork in the Main Office if a student is being
tutored individually.
