Extended DayThe goal of the Extended Day program is to provide a nurturing yet challenging environment in which the Early Childhood Program through fifth grade students have the opportunity to play, participate in arts and crafts, rest, read, and do homework with teachers and staff in a safe, caring and familiar setting. We offer a variety of activities in which children learn through play, build self-confidence and think creatively with the support of teachers and staff. Students are expected to treat other students and teachers with respect and work cooperatively within a positive environment.
Holiday Care
As a convenience to parents, North Cross School offers Holiday Care (through the Extended Day Program) on various days throughout the year when School is closed for students in the Early Childhood Program – fifth grade. During Holiday Care, students have the opportunity to play, participate in arts and crafts, rest, read and do homework with teachers and staff in a safe, caring and familiar setting. Care is available from 8 a.m. – 6 p.m., and students must bring lunch, including a drink, as the Lemon Dining Hall is closed during Holiday Care. To sign up for Holiday Care, please fill out and return a form to your child’s teacher. Parents are permitted to sign up for Holiday Care until two days prior to the scheduled date. In the case that Holiday Care is cancelled, a note will be sent home two days in advance to allow parents to make other arrangements. Once you have signed up for Holiday Care, you must notify school staff (in writing) if you decide to cancel or your account will be billed for the day. For more information please contact Extended Day Director Daryan Horner at 540-989-6641 or 540-521-5042 (during Extended Day/Holiday Care hours). 2023-2024 Fee Schedule
