Hours of Operation
Monday-Friday | 6:30 am - 6:00 pm

The School Age Summer Care program is offered on the beautiful Lourdes High School campus. The faculty and staff work together to establish a loving, safe, and structured community in which your child will develop strength of character, mind, body, and spirit. Our trained and dedicated staff aims to cultivate confidence, compassion, and an enthusiasm for all great studies in God’s creation.

Field Trips
Learning is extended outside of the classroom on field trips. Field trips are a privilege planned by teachers and approved by school administration with educational purposes as the primary objective.

Health and Immunization Forms
Parents are required to submit an immunization form prior to their child’s attendance of the first program session. This form must be signed by a parent, physician, or public health clinic, and must be kept up-to-date. Medical or legal exemptions to the immunization requirements must be submitted prior to entrance.

In addition, a Health Care Summary signed by a physician or their representative must be submitted within 30 days of enrollment for each child. All children must have had a physical exam after they have reached 33 months of age.

The signature of a physician or public clinic is required on the immunization form if the child has not received all of the immunizations required by law for child care. A signature from a physician will also be required if the child has not had the Chickenpox Vaccine (Varicella), but has had Chickenpox.

Classroom Communication
Communication between the parents, child and School age Summer Care Program Leaders is imperative. This communication can be via phone call, email or face to face at any time during the School age Summer Care Program.
