Extended
Day
Children enrolled in our Threes and Pre-K classes may participate
in Extended Day, which beginning in September 2012, will be offered Monday through Friday from
noon to 5:30pm*.
Children are also welcome to participate on days other than
their regular school days if space permits.
Extended Day is held in the Threes classroom area of the church
building. Children participate in a variety of activities, both inside and out of doors. In addition, they will enjoy quiet time/naps and music, all
under the supervision of qualified
staff. The child/staff ratio is up to 8:1. Trinity is licensed
for up to 24 children to attend Extended Day daily.
Children may participate as "regulars" and pay in advance to secure enrollment on specific day(s) each week. Drop-Ins are welcome, space permitting.
