St. John's offers a fun and engaging Extended Day Program for our students. Starting at 7:15 a.m., students (PK-4-8th Grade) may be dropped off early before the school day begins to enjoy time with friends and prepare for the day. Early-morning drop-ff is available at no additional charge to parents. Also, from afternoon dismissal Monday–Thursday until 6:00 p.m. and Friday until 5:00 p.m. Organized by grade, the fee-based program provides opportunities for children to play, enjoy a snack, and engage in fun activities.
Activities include crafts, games, activities, outdoor play, building with LEGO bricks, and FUN Fridays. Students are provided the opportunity to complete homework and reading assignments while attending Extended Day. The program is available for full-time enrollment (paid year in full, by semester, or monthly).
St. John's Extended Day has a Homework Club available Monday – Thursday for 5th-8th grade students from 3:45–4:45 p.m. A staff member will be available to assist students as needed in Homework Club. Registration for Homework Club is the same as an Extended Day drop-in, punch pass or included with full-time Extended Day registration. After 4:45 p.m., students remaining in Homework Club will be checked into Extended Day until they are picked up.
