St. Patrick School’s Enriching & Educational Child Care
C.A.R.E.S.
BEFORE SCHOOL and AFTER SCHOOL C.A.R.E.S. 2024-2025
St. Patrick School proudly offers the C.A.R.E.S. program (Children are Receiving Extended Services), providing before and after school child care for students in all grades. Our Morning C.A.R.E.S. starts at 7:00 am, while Afternoon C.A.R.E.S. continues until 6:00 pm.
Our mission is to create a safe, nurturing space that aligns with the educational philosophy and values of both the school and the family. Daily activities include homework assistance, outdoor play, indoor games, and crafts. We emphasize individualized attention, security, consistency, and heartfelt care.
Please note that according to the Archdiocesan mandate, the C.A.R.E.S. program must be financially self-sustaining. Therefore, parents need to provide a snack for their children during their time in C.A.R.E.S.
