Early-morning care will be available from 7 a.m. until the beginning of your child’s classroom day. During this low-key time, children typically play games, work with crafts, build with blocks, or read. At the end of this period, a staff member will escort young children to their respective classrooms while the older, more independent students go to their classrooms on their own.
If you want to add Before School Care or After School Care for the upcoming school year, please contact the Business Office.
The Aftercare Program begins at the end of the regular school day. During the 2022/23 school year, Aftercare will last until 4:45 and consist of special, structured programs, clubs, sports activities, outside playtime, and reading.
Thacher Elementary and Adolescent students have the opportunity to participate in several after-school programs, offered in six-week blocks. Examples of recent (and ongoing) programs include soccer, basketball, flag football, cooking, photography, knitting, recycled art, karate, wiffleball, pottery, rock climbing, creative writing, and yoga.
